2025 Presenter Information

To help you to prepare for your Digital Health Week 2025 presentation or ePoster submission, please see the relevant details below.

Oral Abstract Presentations​

Presentations are an important part of the event program. In order to showcase the diversity of eHealth and digital health research happening, Digital Health Week 2025 is running a number of streams showcasing a large number of presentations. Specific details of your stream and time will be available in the final program for the event.

Presentation Style​

Digital Health Week 2025 encourages use of the Pecha Kucha presentation style. This presentation style uses 20 slides, allocating 20 seconds to talk to each slide (6 minutes 40 seconds). This particular style has been chosen to encourage, dynamic, progressive storytelling and ensure that all presenters are allocated equal time, and visual aids, for their presentations. After presenting, each speaker will be allocated 2 minutes of question time from the audience.

note

Note: Pecha Kucha style is not essential - if you have another innovative presentation style, we welcome you to use this also but adhere to the timing of a maximum of 7 minutes.

You will present via Zoom and we will ask you to share your own slides at the time of the presentation so that you can progress through your slides at your preferred pace. We will ask you to submit your presentation slides for us to have a backup copy in case of technical issues on the day. Due date for final slides submission is COB Wednesday 29th January 2025. Submissions will be done via this Qualtrics form.

ePosters​

ePosters are an integral part of the event program and will be displayed digitally online the week before the conference and for the duration of the event. Due date for ePoster submissions is COB Wednesday 29th January 2025. All ePosters will need to be submitted via this Qualtrics form

ePoster Presentation Sessions​

In addition to the ePoster gallery we will also host ePoster zoom sessions during the conference, where our ePoster presenters are expected to present via Zoom a short (maximum 1 minute), informal summary of their work and interact with other Digital Health Week 2025 attendees. During the showcase, ePoster presenters will have be given the opportunity to participate in a Zoom meeting and meet with Digital Health Week attendees to discuss and answer questions about their research.

LinkedIn Posters​

All Digital Health Week presenters are encouraged to create a LinkedIn poster in addition to your ePoster or oral presentation. During the conference, your LinkedIn poster will be promoted by key conference LinkedIn accounts to increase the visibility of your research, as well as to provide you with additional opportunity to communicate with other researchers and experience of using a new format for scientific communication. All LinkedIn promotional posters are submitted via this Qualtrics form alongside your ePoster submission or oral abstract slides.
