c) Oral Presentation Guidelines (Young Algaeneer Talks)
If you are participating as oral presentation, please note that we have strict rules about the time. To fit all participants and to keep it dynamic, your presentation should not last more than 5 minutes.
We know that fitting your work in 5 mins presentations is difficult, but a standard approach is still possible if you are concise (e.g. standard approach : introduction-aim-work pipeline -results – conclusion). We suggest you to use no more than 10 slides.
