Information for Poster Presenters

Our team of organizers and volunteers are looking forward to meeting everyone and geeking out on three full days of social media research. One of the highlights of the conference is the Poster Presentation which will feature 45 posters. The poster session will provide an interactive forum for you to present and discuss your research with the conference attendees.
