Presentation Information

The "Oral Presenters" and "Poster Presenters" links (below) lead to two lists of presenters. Those lists include the presenter's name, the title of the investigation, and a link to the abstract (if available).

All Presenters:

Presentations will be either oral or poster. Oral presentations will be assigned either 20 or 30 minutes depending upon the maturity of the investigation. Flight projects (i.e., those that have completed SCR or beyond) will be allotted 30 minutes, flight definition and ongoing ground-based investigations will be allotted 20 minutes.

1998 NRA ground-based investigations (announced Jan. 2000) and Advanced Technology development (ATD) projects will be presented as posters. The deadline for two-page summaries (abstracts) is March 27, 2000 and for extended reports is May 1, 2000 and those which are not received by the deadline will not be included in the abstract booklet or proceedings CD-Rom. Thus, the published deadline will be strictly adhered to and it will not be possible to grant extensions!

Oral Presenters: (Click here if you have an Oral presentation)

Any oral presenter requiring audiovisual equipment other than an overhead or carousel projector must list it on the registration form. The audiovisual equipment available in each room will be two overhead projectors and one 35-mm slide projector. A television/VHS VCR unit will only be available by advance request.

Poster Presenters: (Click here if you have a Poster presentation)

Posters may be put up on the morning of June 6 starting at 8:00 a.m. and should be put up by 9:00 a.m. on June 7th. Posters must be removed prior to 12:00 p.m. on June 8. The space available for each poster will be two panels. Each panel is 36-inches wide and 8-feet tall. The total area will be 6-feet wide and 8-feet tall, but the two panels will be angled into a V. (Therefore, do not bring a straight, 8-foot-by-6-foot item -- it will not work). Attachment will be by Velcro which will be provided at the conference. Do not plan to stick anything (e.g., push pins) into the panels. The panels will not support a lot of weight -- they are intended for posters only. It will not be possible to have a video playing beside your poster. If you need to show a video the monitor will have to be against a wall. Notify Dannah McCauley that you have this requirement. Posters will be on display from Tuesday morning through the end of the Conference on Thursday.
