Call for Posters

Poster Presentations are being solicited for the FPS 64th International Convention. A Poster Session consists of a number of simultaneous presentations by individuals who are assigned a "booth" space (similar to a typical exhibit booth) in a large meeting room. Each space contains a 4- by 8-foot posterboard on which an abstract, key points, conclusions, charts, and tables or diagrams are posted. A small table is provided for display of preprints or samples related to the presentation.

During the Poster Session, meeting attendees browse among the presentations and speak directly with the presenters. Poster presentations are informal, conversational, and highly conducive to the interchange of information between audience and presenter.

Subject areas for poster presentations include (these are broad themes and further aggregation of the posters into groups could / will occur):

  • Advances in Wood-Based Materials, Products, and Processes
  • Furthering the Understanding of Wood Properties
  • Helping Industry Meet 21st Century Customer Needs
  • General (Other)

    Poster presentations are a primary means of disseminating technical information at the International Convention. Individuals interested in giving a poster presentation must submit a poster reservation form by April 1, 2010 - poster requests will be accepted until ballroom capacity is reached. Detailed information and guidelines for presenting a poster will be sent via email to each presenter.

    To submit an abstract for a poster presentation, please fill out the following form and submit via email to the Forest Products Society.
