Presentation Guidelines

Presentations

The technical programme of CMN 2026 consists of 8 plenary lectures, and 30 thematic sessions with a total of 204 oral presentations.

Time:

Each regular presentation is allocated 12 minutes, with additional 3 minutes for Q&A, while keynote talks are allocated 25 min, with 5 min for Q&A. Times quoted include time for 1-2 questions from the floor.

Equipment:

All parallel session rooms will be equipped with a PC and a PC projector.

Please bring your presentation on a USB storage device and download and save your presentation in the PC located in the meeting room where you have been allocated to present. You can do it during the coffee-break before your schedule time.

If your USB storage device does not work properly, you may alternatively connect your own laptop to the projector via HDMI.

If you have any technical problems during the sessions, you will have an assistant to help you.

Moderators of sessions will be asked to be strict on time.

Recommendations for your presentation

In order to prepare your slides for oral presentation please take also into account that, because of projects available at the conference venue, it is required a 16:9 aspect ratio.

If you are using PowerPoint, we recommend you to adjust the slide size in Design->Page Setup menu and choose 16:9 ratio to ensure the compatibility.

We strongly encourage speakers to go to their conference room 10 minutes before the session starts in order to upload their presentation in the room's computer and do a quick test.

Please remember that presentations are delivered in English.
