All other presenters (authors) and participants should fill out the “Participants & Co-presenters” form.

Integrate text that would normally appear in the body (Results and Discussion) of a manuscript in figure legends. Concisely describe not only the content of the figure, but also the derived conclusions. Place brief details of methodology at the end of each legend.<\/p>\n Use large type in short, separated paragraphs with unjustified (ragged right) margins. Numbered or bulleted lists are effective ways to convey a series of points. Do not set entire paragraphs in uppercase (all capitals) or boldface type.<\/p>\n Place an introduction at the upper left and a conclusion at the lower right, both in large type. It is rarely necessary to post a copy of the abstract.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n![\"25th](\"http:\/\/neuroid.uprrp.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/14572930_886453504818117_968100127424443784_n.jpg\")

Instructions for Poster Presentations (adapted from SFN guidelines)<\/h1>\n
\nPoster boards are six feet (1.8 m) wide and four feet (1.2 m) high. Consider organizing illustrations and text using a grid plan. Arrange materials in columns rather than rows – this format is easier for viewers to read. Place the most significant findings at eye level immediately below the title bar; place supporting data and\/or text in the lower panels.<\/p>\n
\nPrepare a banner for the top of the poster indicating the abstract title, author(s), affiliation(s), and the presentation number. Use lettering at least one-inch high.<\/p>\n
\nDesign figures for viewing from a distance and use clear, visible graphics and large type. Colors are effective if used sparingly; use dark colors on white or pale backgrounds and light colors on dark backgrounds. Figures should illustrate no more than one or two major points. However, simple figures are unnecessary. Make clear main points, but include detail for the aficionado. Indicate illustration sequences with numbers or letters at least one inch high. (Omit “Fig.” or “Figure” – this is unnecessary and occupies excess space).<\/p>\n
\nEach figure or table should have a heading of one or two lines in very large type stating the “take-home” message. Provide additional essential information below in a legend set in 16 point or larger type.<\/p>\n
