A preview/testing area (also called “speaker ready room”) is available for speakers.
Speakers must upload their presentation to the NAPAC2019 SPMS server following the instruction below. Use of individual laptops cannot be accommodated. The deadline for presentation upload is at 15:00 on the day before your talk. Accepted formats are Microsoft PowerPoint and Adobe PDF.
Slide size
Please note that 16:9 presentations will be allowed. With 4:3 presentations there will be black columns on each side of the screen.
Any special requirements concerning visual aids should be addressed to the local organizers at napac2019@frib.msu.edu well in advance of the conference.
Before the conference starts
Please upload your electronic presentation to the NAPAC2019 SPMS server as early as possible but at the latest by 15:00 on the day before the presentation. Name the file with the program code and «_talk» (for example MO104_talk.ppt) and then upload in the same way as for papers through your NAPAC2019 profile. You can find the program code assigned to your presentation when logging into the NAPAC2019 SPMS server.
