Guidance on Abstract Submission | Mentor of the Year Nomination

Presentation Submission Deadline: April 5, 11:59pm to our@uwm.edu.

This year’s virtual symposium will have both synchronous and asynchronous presentation options.

Synchronous presentations:

Synchronous presentations will be scheduled in 15 minute increments on the afternoon of April 16th via Microsoft Teams. The presenter will have 10 minutes to share outcomes from their work in a live and synchronous Teams meeting with five additional minutes for comments, questions, and discussion. These moderated synchronous presentations will be scheduled in blocks of 4-5 presentations and may be concurrent.

Asynchronous presentation options:

Please submit a poster file using the provided template, PowerPoint slides, or a video in .mp4 or .mov format.  With any submission, we encourage you to use audio to record narration that discusses your work. Please see resources below to help you do this, and reach out to our advisor, Tamara Long (talong@uwm.edu) with any questions. We will link these files to your abstract in our searchable Symposium WordPress platform, and these will allow for visitors to leave you comments and questions. We would ask that you check periodically throughout the day on April 16th to respond to questions and comments.
