EGG-TIMER SESSIONS
The egg-timer sessions will run in parallel with paper presentation sessions. One person in each session is designated as the Session Chair; please check the detailed conference programme when it becomes available in the coming days to see if you are the Chair of your session. If you are, you will be in charge of time management. The time available for each egg-timer paper is 5 minutes of which 3 minutes are for the presentation and 2 minutes for general discussion. The tight schedule means strict time restrictions, so please respect your colleagues and keep to the allocated time for your presentation.
Some important guidelines to help make the egg-timer format work successfully:
a. Three minutes is not a long time so make sure you condense your message to fit the time frame.
b. Your presentation should focus only on the key aspects of the paper. Please practice!
c. You will find that you need very few slides.
d. Be prepared for you presentation to be cut-short by the session chair if you go over time.
