To help you to prepare for your Digital Health Week 2022 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 2022 is running a number of streams showcasing a large number of presentations. Details of your stream and time will be available in the final program for the event.
Presentation Style
Digital Health Week 2022 recommends using 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: 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.
Due date for final slides submission is COB Wednesday 19 January 2022. Submissions will be done via this Qualtrics form. Please note that due to the large number of presenters we will not be accepting any slides or slide changes on the day.

ePosters
ePosters are an important part of the event program and will be displayed digitally online two weeks ahead of the conference and for the duration of the conference.
We will also host an ePoster zoom session, where our ePoster presenters can come and give a short (1 minute), informal summary of their work and interact with other Digital Health Week 2022 attendees.

ePoster Showcase
ePosters will be showcased as part of an ePoster session on the Tuesday afternoon, February 15th, 2022. During the showcase, ePoster presenters will have be given the opportunity to participate in a zoom meeting, provide a 1 minute summary of their research, and meet with Digital Health Week attendees to discuss and answer questions about their research.
Twitter Dissemination
All presenters are also encouraged to create a ‘Twitter poster’ to share on social media platforms. This is a great opportunity to showcase the importance of your work visually using simple, succinct points. As part of your involvement in Digital Health Week 2022, if you produce a Twitter poster and share it with us, we will share it widely throughout our networks and on social media. Submissions for Twitter posters will also open shortly and be submitted via a Qualtrics form which to be distributed in follow up communications.
