Instructions for round tables IOC 2006
Based on questionnaires from previous congresses, the most useful and interesting round tables are those that are structured around a few major issues or series of questions. It is best to limit introductory comments to a few minutes in order to allow the maximum amount of time for discussion.
Audio visual aids available in round table rooms: white boards, power point projector (bring your own laptop or request one from organizers). Overhead projectors must be requested in advance. Please email info@i-o-c.org if you require an overhead projector or a laptop computer for your room.
Proceedings: Reports from the round tables will appear in the electronic supplement to the proceedings from the congress. These should be 2 letter size pages long (maximum), 12 point font, double spaced and should summarize the main discussion and conclusions of the round table. These will be due 31 Oct 2006 and should be emailed to Franz Bairlein franz.bairlein@ifv.terramare.de An online site for submission may be constructed after the congress. If so, you will be notified.
