Please note once more that the body text of your abstract should not exceed 300
words, otherwise
it will be published in truncated form.
For abstracts of poster presentations it is very important to mark the poster session
of choice: Endocrinology on Tuesday June 4, Neuroscience 1 on Wednesday
June 5, Neuroscience 2 on Thursday June 6 or Cognition & Behavioral
Neuroscience on Friday June 7.
For those presenting a poster in the session on Cognitive and Behavioral
Neuroscience, there is an option for an oral communication (see choice
on the Registration form). The program committee Cognitive & Behavioral Neurosciences
will make a selection from the poster abstracts. You will receive
an e-mail about this final selection which will be
published on the Friday
program page of this website before 1 May 2002.
Oral presentations
Oral presentation times are either 15, 30 or 45 min, all including discussion
time. Presentation times are indicated between brackets on the program
pages. The moderator of your session will help you keeping your presentation
within the allotted time frame.
In all lecture rooms, beamer projectors but no laptops are available.
The moderator of the session will provide the laptop facility. The organization
would like to stimulate the use of PowerPoint presentations in all
sessions since slide projectors are only available on request.
Ideally all PowerPoint presentations of a session should be loaded on one
laptop so that no re-plugging is needed between the talks. For smooth
projections via the beamer, presenters are therefore requested to contact the
moderator of the session so that the
files can be loaded on a single laptop computer. A CD-ROM will do, but make sure
that the CD-ROM is 'closed' for uncomprised reading in all types of CD-ROM
players.
All speakers that cannot escape presenting their data on slides are kindly requested
to send a message to the meeting secretariat enmeeting@hetnet.nl, so that the organization can
arrange a slide projector for your talk.

be held on Tuesday June 4 between
13.00-15.00 h (during which lunch

and have to be removed before Wednesday June 5 08.30 h.
The poster session Neuroscience 1 is scheduled on Wednesday June 5 between
14.00-15.30 h. These posters can already be mounted from 08.30 h onwards, and have to be removed before

The poster session Neuroscience 2 is scheduled on Thursday June 6 between
10.00-11.30 h. These posters can already be mounted from 08.30 h onwards, and have to be removed before
Friday June 7 08.30 h.
The poster session Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience is scheduled on
Friday June 7 between 10.00-11.30 h. These posters can be mounted on from 08.30 h onwards, and have to be removed

Poster boards are sized 100 cm wide x 120 cm high. Posters are mounted using
drawing pins, which are available at the poster session site.
Poster awards
For the Endocrinology, Neuroscience 1/2 and
Cogntion and Behavior poster sessions two posters will be awarded for
presentation and quality. Poster selection committees appointed by the three
scientific program committees will
announce the winners in Poster award ceremonies that
will be held during the dinner of 4 June (Endocrinology), after the
'Hersenstichting' lecture on 6 June (Neuroscience 1 and 2 combined) and after
the plenary session before lunch on June 7 (Cognition and Behavior). |
