参加学术会议以来,头一次遇到这么贴心的会议组织者,呵呵。 忍不住把他们给演讲者的通知贴出来,考虑得事无巨细啊,大赞! 对了,忘了说,这个会叫NAM,North American Catalysis Meeting
Dear Xiaoming Wang
The dates for the 21st NAM are rapidly approaching.
By now, you should know the scheduled time for your oral presentation (OB53). You can also follow this link http://www.21nam.org/program/time-schedule.html to the on-line technical program to find the day, time and location of your presentation. The five parallel technical sessions will be located in the Seacliff, Bayview, and Grand Ballroom Salons A, B and C. There will be a map in the program book that you receive at the registration desk and signs will be posted to direct you to the right room.
Each conference room will be equipped a computer and a projector. Some of the rooms will have multiple screens, which will limit the effectiveness of laser pointers. The NAM organizers will provide some capability for highlighting areas of projections directly from the computer. Additional details on the available Audio/Visual (A/V) instrumentation are given below.
Your presentations should be provided as a Microsoft Powerpoint files, either on a flash drive or a CD. We plan to use flash drives to transfer the files to the PC. Flash drives will be available on site if you do not have one. Two speaker 慻reen?rooms (Plaza Room and Regency B) will be available from 7 am to 5 pm throughout the week for you to review your presentation material prior to loading on the computer. The computers will also be available to all presenters for any last minute changes you need to make.
Presenters are expected to contact the session chair in the session room before the start of the session to load the files onto the computer provided. Check the schedule on the website for your room assignment and time of presentation.
We have arranged for a speaker breakfast each morning from 7am -7:45am in the Regency A Room for all of those presenting on that particular day. The hotel will serve a continental breakfast at this time. We strongly encourage you to attend this breakfast to meet your session chair and to receive any last minute instructions.
Finally, it is critical that every speaker respect the time allotment for his/her presentation. The session chairs have been instructed to keep sessions strictly on time because the co-current sessions require tight timing to allow meeting attendees to move between sessions in a timely manner.
The time allotments are as follows: Plenary lectures 50 minutes + 5 minutes for introduction Keynote lectures 33 minutes plus 7 minutes for questions Oral presentations 17 minutes plus 3 minutes for questions
Please insure that you follow these guidelines and requirements. We look forward to welcoming you to San Francisco at the 21st NAM in June.
