fda-duodenoscope-update

Ignite | 5-min. pitch on an idea or practice

Multiple presenters will deliver a 5-minute presentation. After all presenters have spoken, they will lead small-group discussions with participants. Due to the nature of the Ignite sessions, the selection process is a two-step process, requiring a video submission in the second round.
CDC-data-release

Small Group Discussions | 10-min. intro with 40-min. audience discussion

In the first 10 minutes, the presenter poses an idea. In the next 40 minutes, the presenter becomes the facilitator and invites discussion, allowing the audience to steer the conversation.
fda-duodenoscope-update

Podium | 50-min. lecture and Q & A

Traditional podium presentations should have clear takeaways and be participatory and as engaging as possible.
fda-duodenoscope-update

Poster | Two 50-min. manned poster sessions

The goal is to have a conversation with an organized, visually appealing poster. Presenters should be prepared to bring the learner into the conversation.
