has been successfully read.
Slide content and design
- Material on slides must be of an adequate size to be seen clearly
by all delegates.
- It is recommended that each slide contains no more than seven lines
of text and no more than seven words per line.
- If showing graphs, tables or charts:
Do not make them too crowded
Complex figures should be broken up into series
Limit the number of captions
Use rounded figures
- As a rough guide, we suggest you allow no more than two slides
per minute of your talk.
- Slides are easier to read when there is a high contrast between the
text and the background. Yellow or white text on a mid to dark
blue background works particularly well. Avoid black text on a white background
(eg photographs of typed pages).
Disclosure
If the research was supported by a pharmaceutical
company you must indicate the company’s role in analysing the
