Guidelines for Presenters
Each participant whose abstract is accepted for poster presentation at InterPore2025 will be required to provide a poster and participate in their assigned poster session. Poster presenters also have the option of providing a digital poster and/or pre-recorded presentation.
Presentations must be given by the designated person during the conference. You may view the designated presenter of your abstract(s) by navigating to the My Conference page on the conference site here: https://events.interpore.org/event/56/conference
Presenters must be registered for the conference prior to 25 April. Any change of presenter must be notified to conference2025@interpore.org. Please provide us with the abstract ID number and the name of the substitute presenter.
Participants may present a maximum of one oral presentation and one poster presentation OR two poster presentations.
Prior to the conference, create your attendee profile in Whova. Note that only those who have completed registration for InterPore2025 will be able to log into Whova for the event. Remember your profile will be seen by other attendees, sponsors and exhibitors so make sure to include detailed information for making connections and networking.
Poster Sessions
- Each poster presenter will be assigned to one of the poster sessions during the conference.
- Posters should be put up in the morning and will remain on display the entire day.
- Presenters of posters should be at their posters during their scheduled poster presentation session. Those who have requested to be considered for the best poster award must be present at their poster during the scheduled poster presentation session and be available for the live Q&A.
- Session assignments can be found by navigating to the "My Conference" section of this website and clicking on the abstract link.
Instructions for preparing your poster
- The usable area on the poster boards is 40 inches (102 cm) wide by 48 inches (122 cm) high. As a guide, a 36-inch wide x 48-inch high portrait poster would fit nicely on the poster board.
- Audio/Visual equipment is not provided for poster sessions.
- It is the responsibility of presenters to remove their posters at the end of the day. Unclaimed posters will be removed by the organizers.
- Posters will be attached by double-sided tape or pins which will be provided on-site.
Important note: Participants are responsible for ordering, paying for and picking-up their own posters.
Poster Printing Service
Poster presenters are responsible for placing and paying for their own poster orders. A local print shop is able to print 4-color, 36" x 48" posters at the cost of $69 plus tax. The Local Organizing Committee (LOC) will make one daily pickup from the printing company at 8:00 AM.
If you would like your poster to be included in the LOC pickup, your order must be placed at least 44 hours in advance of the desired pickup time. For example: If you want your poster to be delivered Monday morning at 8:00 AM, you must place your order no later than Saturday at noon (12:00 PM).
Participants are responsible for ordering and paying for their own posters.

Pre-Recorded Presentations (optional)

- Attendees and presenters can use the chat features in the conference platform to discuss presentations at any time.
- Please see the Whova Online Conference Platform page for detailed instructions on viewing posters through Whova.
Instructions for Pre-Recorded Presentations
We recommend a length of 10-15 minutes for pre-recorded presentations. You will need to send us a link to your video (not the video itself) using this link. So that your video is accessible to all participants (in different countries), we recommend using Wistia.
Videos should contain a prominent view of the presentation slides along with audio of the spoken presentation. Optionally, videos may contain a shot of the speaker’s head for increased engagement (this shot should be thumbnail-sized and overlaid on the slide images). Many presentation software tools allow recording audio and video directly in the application and can export appropriate video files. Please see the notes below for detailed instructions for PowerPoint.
- Recording a Pre-Recorded Presentation in PowerPoint
Follow these instructions to add audio (and optionally video) to your slides.
Follow these instructions to generate an .mp4 file from your slides and audio/video.
Alternatively, you can follow this video tutorial which goes through both of these steps.
- Uploading a Pre-Recorded Presentation to Wistia
Note: You should not use YouTube or Vimeo, as participants from some countries will be unable to watch your video.- Create a free account at wistia.com. Free Wistia accounts allow for 3 videos of unlimited size.
- Follow these instructions to upload a video to your Wistia account.
- Follow these instructions to obtain the link to your video.
- Send us the link to your video using this form.
Tips for recording videos
• Use as quiet an area as possible.
• Avoid areas that have echo.
• Rooms should be fairly small.
• Sound dampening can be done with carpeting, curtains, furniture.
• Hardline internet connection recommended, but if unavailable, use a strong Wi-Fi connection.
• Good headset with microphone close to mouth BUT away from direct line of mouth to reduce “pops”. Avoid using your device's default built-in microphone.
• Do a test recording of a couple of minutes and review the sound and picture quality, MP4 format, and bit rate before recording the entire presentation. Make adjustments if needed.
