Presentation Information
*In order to present in Minneapolis, all presenters, including symposia presenters, must register and pay for the meeting. Please note that submitting an abstract does not automatically register you for the meeting. Online registration is a separate system from the abstract submission site and requires a separate login. Your username and password are not necessarily the same for the two systems.
Presenters who need to cancel and do not notify K-State 24 hours before the start of the meeting date are penalized and are not allowed to present in the next JMIH.

Schedule
Abstracts
Contributed paper sessions will take place daily from the afternoon of Thursday, July 7 through Monday, July 11 at the Hilton Minneapolis. Oral presentations that are not part of one of the symposia will be grouped by subject matter. Time limits will be strictly enforced: fifteen minutes total (twelve minutes for presentation and three minutes for questions).
Three Speaker Prep Rooms will be available on the third floor of the Hilton Minneapolis. Board Room 1, Board Room 2, and Board Room 3 will have computers and projectors available for speakers to practice their presentations. A sign-up sheet will be posted near each room.
Posters

Schedule
Abstracts
Poster exhibits offer an excellent opportunity for interaction between presenter and audience, allowing a more extensive exchange of ideas. A larger audience is likely to view a poster, and a poster allows greater flexibility in presentation. All poster presentations will be displayed in the Minneapolis Ballroom ABCD of the Hilton Minneapolis, among the exhibits, to provide maximum visibility.
Maximum size is four feet (height) by eight feet (width) and will be erected back to back. Presenters are responsible for bringing their own push pins and/or other materials to secure posters to the boards.
