Recording your MP3  (MP3 only)

For instructions on how to record an audio file for your Oral Presentation, please click here.
You may record up to maximum 15mins.

**Please note that you may NOT save the file name with any characters or symbols – only letters and numbers and no spaces in the file name.
By following the guidelines, you will ensure your oral is displayed correctly. Without following these instructions your oral will be unable to be uploaded.

 Messaging Oral presenters

Within the platform, there is a messaging service to facilitate scientific exchange.  Messages can be sent by participants directly to the presenter’s email (without seeing the presenters email address) by clicking the envelope icon.

Interaction with Oral Presenters

Oral presenters have the option to include a URL link to their own online personal e-meeting rooms (via Zoom, GoToMeeting, WebEx, Microsoft Teams, etc.) or institutional e-meeting rooms together with their availability, where they can then meet other delegates for interaction and discussion. You can create free zoom meeting rooms here: https://zoom.us/. The presenter takes responsibility for these third-party links and the Organizers are unable to monitor them.

Publication Consent

By uploading your Oral and audio file, you agree to having it published in the official Congress publications and on the Congress website, virtual platform and educational websites for the duration of 3 months following the Virtual Congress.

For questions please e-mail adpd_abstracts@kenes.com

Please note that if you are registered for onsite you may also bring a paper poster (board and shift # have been sent already)  – for paper poster instructions, please click here.
