Guidelines for Session Chairs and Presenters

1. Session Chairs

Please be seated at the "次座長席(Next Chairperson Seat)" (located at the front right of each room) at least 15 minutes before the start of your session.

Each oral presentation is 7 minutes, followed by 3 minutes for questions and answers. We ask for your cooperation in preserving the presentation and Q&A schedule to ensure smooth session operation. For other sessions, presenters have been notified in advance.

All session rooms are equipped with a timer above the chairperson’s seat. A yellow warning light will turn on one minute before the end of the presentation, and a red light will turn on when time is up.

2. Oral Presenters

Please prepare your presentation slides in 16:9 aspect ratio.
All oral presentations must be delivered using a PC.
