SELECTION PROCESS

Abstracts will be reviewed by the Research Conference Committee according to 1) clarity; 2) scientific merit; 3) novelty of content; and 4) implications of research or QA/QI.

Unfortunately, due to time constraints, not all submissions requesting an oral presentation can be accommodated and final decisions will rest with the Research Conference Committee. Researchers may be invited to present a poster presentation rather than an oral presentation.

 

PRESENTATION GUIDELINES

ORAL PRESENTATIONS

  • Presentations will be in-person and we ask that they be submitted to research@rvh.on.ca prior to the conference.
  • Time allotted for oral presentations will be 15 minutes (10 minutes for presentation and 5 minutes for discussion)

POSTER PRESENTATIONS

  • Researchers are responsible for their poster display, including printing, setup, and takedown; poster display stands and pins will be provided
