Invited Talk Guidelines
Invited speakers should plan to accommodate a 5-minute question-and-answer period within the time allotted in the program. For example, a talk scheduled for 10:00-10:30 a.m. is a 25-minute presentation followed by a 5-minute Q&A.
Digital Presentation Requirements
The native aspect ratio of the auditorium display is 16:9.
The default presentation software for the workshop is Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2016 for Windows. Apple’s Keynote software is not supported.
Presentations created on Apple computers must be compatible with PowerPoint 2016 for Windows. If you’re using an Apple computer to create your presentation, we suggest that you upload a PDF of your presentation unless it includes videos or transitions.
For best performance, videos, if included, should be in MP4 format and embedded in the PowerPoint presentation. AVI and MPEG-4 formats are expected to work but are not recommended.
Loading Your Invited Talk
Upload your invited-talk presentation by midnight October 19, Eastern Time.
Name the file with your talk start time, version number, and your last name, in the following convention: hhmm_V1_Lastname.
Meaning: talk start time in 24-hour format, version number, speaker’s last name.
For example, the file for the last talk in session 4 should be named 1500_V1_Wang. If the presenter wishes to upload an updated version, the updated file should be named 1500_V2_Wang.
Showing Your Invited Talk
As you approach the lectern, an NYU Langone media technician will pull up your presentation in Presenter Mode. At the lectern, you will control the presentation using keyboard arrows:
- right arrow to advance slides or start “on-click” movies
- left arrow to revert to the previous slide
The mouse will only function as a “laser pointer” for the audience. The lectern monitor will show Notes View, with the laser-pointer cursor selected, such that mousing over the current slide will show up as a laser pointer for the audience.
Power Pitch and Poster Guidelines
Poster presentations marked in the program with Ⓟ will be power-pitched. Each pitch is two minutes.
Power Pitches
Create a two-minute oral presentation that communicates the essence of your work, highlighting key innovations or results. Think big picture and leave the details for the poster. We recommend that you practice your power pitch to ensure that you can deliver it within the allotted 120 seconds.
The power pitch presentations will be delivered in “rapid fire” format, back-to-back, with no questions.
Digital Presentation Requirements
The native aspect ratio of the auditorium display is 16:9.
The default presentation software for the workshop is Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2016 for Windows. Apple’s Keynote software is not supported.
Presentations created on Apple computers must be compatible with PowerPoint 2016 for Windows. If you’re using an Apple computer to create your presentation, we suggest that you upload a PDF of your presentation unless it includes videos or transitions.
For best performance, videos, if included, should be in MP4 format and embedded in the PowerPoint presentation. AVI and MPEG-4 formats are expected to work but are not recommended.
Loading Your Power Pitch
Upload your power pitch presentation by midnight October 19, Eastern Time.
Name the file with the poster number, version number, and presenter’s last name in the following convention: 1530_P1_V1_Lastname.
Meaning: session start time in 24-hour format (same for all power pitches), poster number, version number, speaker’s last name.
For example, the presentation for poster number 4 should be named 1530_P4_V1_Yazici. If the presenter wishes to upload an updated version, the updated file should be named 1530_P4_V2_Yacici.

Posters
Each poster presenter is to bring a printed poster describing the corresponding accepted abstract.
Posters should be no larger than 36 wide by 48 inches high (portrait orientation). Larger prints cannot be accommodated.
Hang your printed poster in its assigned space on the provided poster-board by the start of the poster session, 4:00 p.m. on October 21.
Push pins will be provided, and the poster boards will be available starting at 3:00 p.m.
Email a PDF file of the poster to i2iworkshop@nyulangone.org. The PDFs will be made available on the workshop web page after the meeting concludes. (To participate in the poster competition, email us your poster PDF by end of Monday, October 19—see below.)
Non-Faculty Poster Competition
A poster competition will be open to all non-faculty first-authors. To enter, submit a PDF of your poster via email to i2iworkshop@nyulangone.org by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Monday, October 19.
The jury will distinguish two winners, who will be announced at the workshop’s last session. Authors of the first- and second-prize poster will receive a certificate and a symbolic gift.
