In order to make sure that SL 2022 talks run smoothly according to schedule and without delays, we would like to ask that you send your final slides for the presentation in advance, so that we can set up the shared laptops for this purpose. We would prefer you not using your own laptop.

 Could you please send your slides by 11:59 PM the day before your talk using the link below to facilitate smooth transitions between talks.

We have scheduled 20 minute slots for each presentation comprising 15 minutes for the talk and 5 minutes for discussion.

The two laptops have the following configurations:

- LAPTOP_1: MS Windows10 Pro, MS Office Standard 2021, Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 2022.011.20117, VLC 3.0.17.4
- LAPTOP_2: MacOS Monterrey 12, MS Office 2021 for Mac, KeyNote 11.2, VLC 3.0.17.3 , Adobe Reader 11.

Please upload your presentation using the following Link:

Also please note that during the registration, coffee and lunch breaks, presenters will be able to test their presentations for the upcoming session.
