Closing remarks by Martin Vingron

Talk format
Each slot is 20 minutes, however we recommend you keep 2 minutes free at the end for questions / change of microphone etc. Due to a tight shedule, we will have to be strict about time.
We will provide a PC with Windows XP. Microsoft Office 2007 and Acrobat Reader 9. Nevertheless the files should preferably be platform-independent, ie in pdf format. Even if PowerPoint documents are supported, the layout formatting might come out differently when going from Mac or Linux to Windows due to incompatible versions of Office.
Please have a copy of your talk ready on a USB stick at the beginning of the break before your session. The speakers of the session "Evolution + Systems Biology" should come forward at 13:10 at the latest. The speakers of the session "Next Generation Sequencing I" should come forward at 08:50.
Poster format
Posters should ideally be of size A0 (841mm x 1189mm), and oriented "portrait".
