Duration of Session

The length of the sessions is to be determined by the Organizing Committee on the basis of the total number of papers accepted, and the number of sessions required in a 90 minutes or 120 minutes session format.  

Time for Presentation

The session would be chaired by someone appointed by the Organising Committee, preferably with some expertise in the subject area. Each participant would be allocated a minimum of 25 minutes for their presentation and five minutes for discussion. If a presenter exceeds their time in their presentation it means that they forfeit their discussion period. A large number of delegates are now making PowerPoint presentations; this is causing considerable delays in session programmes as each delegate connects up their laptop to the data projector. This can take 3 or 4 minutes and therefore reduces the time available for the paper and discussion. Delegates are advised to bring their presentation on either a disk or a CD ROM.

CONFERENCE CATEGORY / LANGUAGE

Papers/abstract will be accepted according to their category, so the authors should give careful consideration to placing their papers accordingly. All proceedings, publications and presentation of the conference will be in ENGLISH. No simultaneous translation will be provided.

Papers are invited to be presented as keynote address, guest lecture, panel discussions & poster presentation. Presentation can be either oral presentations or video presentations (surgical techniques, procedures, invasive procedures, teaching aids).

BUSINESS MEETINGS

The Organising Committee might arrange longer business meetings prior to the conference and may hold shorter ones at suitable times during the conference.
