In the course of the past World Nutrition Forums, the poster presentation has become one of the scientific highlights of this conference. This can be seen from the increasing number of abstracts submitted for the poster session, reaching nearly 100 posters at the last WNF in 2008. While the oral presentations is limited due to time constraints, there is plenty of room for presenting recent scientific findings during the poster session and also to discuss these results with interested participants in a relaxed atmosphere while having tea, coffee, or a cocktail.

Just before the poster session, expert talks will be held for the first time at the World Nutrition Forum series. Renowned experts will gather in 4 groups and discuss, together with the audience, important and emerging scientific and practical topics related to animal nutrition and production. To facilitate the poster abstract evaluation process by the scientific committee we kindly ask you to follow our recommendations concerning format, structure, and deadlines.
