Once you are logged in, scroll down the Program Schedule to view the Sessions and click on “Join” to access them. If you would like to view the presentation description and speakers prior to going into the session, you may do so by clicking on the name of the session.

Can I access the abstract posters through the platform?

 A “Poster and Art Competition Gallery” will be displayed so that you can view the accepted posters and submitted artwork. This can be found on the right-hand side of the portal. Once you have selected to enter the Gallery, you will be able to see all Posters in one section including the name of the Poster, the authors name and organisation. To view the Poster, hover over the snapshot of the Poster and click on “View Presentation”. You will be able to view the Poster, download the Poster and enter your notes about the Poster that you can export at a later date.
