No media will be accepted in the lecture halls. During the session, each speaker (m/f/d) will control his/her own presentation via radio presenter, technical staff will be available in the room.

Contributions should be handed in at the media acceptance desk at least 2 hours before the start of the session. Please follow the signs on site.
Please note the rule for presenters that conflicts of interest of authors will be listed in your presentation.
Integrated Videos:
These often cause presentation problems. If you cannot do without videos, please make sure that they are copied to the data medium and saved in the same directory as the presentation. Please test data media with integrated videos on different computers to ensure integration. One way to integrate different media into PowerPoint is to use the PACK&GO feature available in Microsoft PowerPoint to play lectures on other computers.
Using Apple:
We ask that you make your presentation compatible with Microsoft Office. For the test please hand in your presentation in the media check. It will then be tested with the computers available there.
To ensure a smooth process, we only allow you to use your own Apple MacBook for the presentation in exceptional cases. Since there are different standards, the adapter to VGA has to be carried along by yourself. Please inform the media reception in time about your wish to use your Apple MacBook.
Poster information
All poster contributions will be on display during the whole conference. Poster mounting should please be done by September 16, 2026 by 12:00.
Please refer to the program for your poster number and attach the poster to the designated movable wall. Mounting materials will be provided.
