Poster Sessions

Poster sessions are designed to be impactful information sessions on research and institutional programs.

Posters will be available to view throughout the conference. During dedicated poster session time blocks in the conference schedule, presenters will be available at their posters to discuss their research and programs. Attendees can use this one-on-one time with presenters to learn more, ask questions, and talk through implications for their own campuses.

Please note that Poster Sessions do not have a virtual presentation option; all presenters must register for and attend the place-based conference in Boston.

Preparing Your Poster

If you are accepted to present a poster session, please reference the following information as you begin to think about the poster you will produce!

Poster boards will be available in Boston for poster session presenters to hang their printed posters. The standard size for these poster boards is 8 feet wide by 4 feet tall; the exact dimensions for Boston may vary and will be confirmed in early 2023. 

The stands are large, so it’s typical for the poster to only take up part of the board. There is no expectation that the poster will fill the entire space. The width of the boards also helps to space the posters out, and accommodate multiple presenters for posters that have more than one person on their presenter team.
