If I am unable to attend my live oral session, can I pre-record a presentation and have this played during the session?
No, all oral presentations must be completed during the live session. If you are unable to attend your scheduled presentation time please contact maps@acs.org to withdraw your abstract.
-
Can a presentation be moved to another session?
Please reach out directly to your division program chair by Friday, May 24 to request a change to your oral presentation session. After May 24, we can no longer make any changes to the presentation schedule.
-
Will the oral technical sessions be recorded for OnDemand viewing?
No, oral technical sessions will not be recorded for OnDemand. Any OnDemand content provided will be at the discretion of the presenters. Presenters are responsible to opt-in and submit a recording via Speaker Management, in the virtual platform.
-
I need to change who will be the abstract presenter, or I am presenting instead of the original presenter. Who do I inform of this change?
To ensure presenters are properly identified for in-person or virtual sessions, we do ask that presenters are correctly noted in MAPS for each abstract in the program. Please contact ACS at maps@acs.org to request changes to the designated abstract presenter.
