Moderator Roles & Responsibilities A few weeks prior to the conference, you will receive a packet containing the biographies, contact info. and abstracts of the speakers in your session. Your primary role is to introduce each speaker and keep the presentations on schedule. Presentations are to be no longer than 20-25 minutes, including questions, which will leave you 5 minutes for transition/introduction of the next speaker (talks are scheduled on the 1/2 hour). A laptop, LCD prolector and microphones will be provided in each room. Most presenters will be using Microsoft PowerPoint (LCD Projector). The Conference Coordinator as well as the AV staff will be available to assist you, however, please familiarize yourself with the AV equipment upon arrival. A laptop is provided in each session room. Presentations must be loaded onto the laptop prior to the session. We encourage you to contact your speakers ahead of time to coordinate this. A simple email correspondence indicating they should meet you in the session room one half hour prior to the session start has worked well in the past. We also ask that you bring any work you feel would be appropriate to present in the event a speaker does not show up to the session (i.e. "canned presentation") Registration Moderators are offered a registration fee waiver. You may use the special hard copy registration form (mailed to you in January) or register online. Workshops and lunches may be selected, at your expense. Moderators must register. Please submit the registration no later than February 10th, 2012.   Questions? Contact the Conference Coordinator: Brenna Lockwood, AEHS Foundation, 413-549-5170, brenna@aehsfoundation.org
