Posters at the 8th International Barcode of Life Conference are presented digitally online, and on eight standalone kiosks at the conference venue. If your abstract has been accepted also for a lightning talk, you have a 3-minute oral presentation in addition to your e-Poster.
All corresponding/submitting authors of abstracts accepted for ePosters and lightning talks have received an e-mail with information on how to submit your ePoster. You can also access this information here: ePoster submission.
Poster submission deadline is June 6, 2019, 23:59 (CEST, Trondheim).
Please use the below guidelines when creating your poster and/or lightning presentation.
