2021 NAPCRG ICPF Conference -- Presenter Information

The 2021 NAPCRG ICPF Conference will be virtual due to concerns with COVID-19. We realize that some of you may not have much experience presenting in a virtual format, and we’re here to assist you. Please review this information and contact our staff if you have questions or concerns.

Step 2: Update Your Presentation with Appropriate Co-Authors

Step 3: Prepare Your Virtual Poster Presentation 

Poster presentations will be part of the ICPF Virtual Poster Hall. 

These materials are available to attendees to view at their own convenience on-demand during the conference. There will be a comment section under each poster presentation for viewers to leave comments and questions for the presenters to read and/or reply to directly. 

All poster presentations will include a visual of the poster, abstract, and an optional handout or video recording of 1-3 minutes.
