Oncology is the study and treatment of cancer. It is a vast field that covers the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer. The field of oncology is constantly evolving, and new treatments are being developed all the time. Some of the latest advances in oncology include immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and precision medicine. These treatments are more effective and less toxic than traditional chemotherapy, and they are helping to improve survival rates for cancer patients.
Speaker Guidelines:
Organize Your Research
State the hypothesis and purpose of your research.
Describe your methods of investigation.
Include data collected and what was learned.
Give conclusions based on the collected data.
Emphasize the significance and highlights of the research.
Shape Your Presentation
Prepare notes that highlight the salient points of your talk.
Practice the delivery of your talk, along with your slide sequence. Be sure your talk fits the time allotted.
Use simple sentences. Avoid jargon, highly specialized vocabulary, and unfamiliar abbreviations.
Think about questions you might be asked, and prepare your answers.
Audio-visuals should amplify your talk, not duplicate it.
Do not include music or film clips or other copyrighted content with your presentation unless it is directly relevant to your research. If you must include music, film clips, or similar content, please ensure that it is either open source or content for which you have copyright permissions to use. Optimally display your work—don't use words if a picture conveys it more clearly (graphs, tables, charts, etc.).
Use line graphs to show trends; bar graphs to compare magnitudes; pie graphs to demonstrate relative portions of a whole.
Make sure your supporting audio-visuals are concise, uncluttered, and easily read from a distance. We recommend that you use a font of at least eighteen points or larger. This is especially important in presentations to a virtual audience because screen sizes vary by user.
Request special AV equipment early or it may not be available.
