Two Poster Sessions, each lasting two days, will be held in the lobbies and Exhibition Halls (see maps #3 for location). Session I posters will be hung from Saturday morning to Sunday 7 pm, and those for Session II from Tuesday morning to Wednesday 7 pm.

Poster will be hung on panels. Therefore, we recommend that each poster be at most 90 wide and 130 cm high and should be readable from a distance of 2 meters.

Each poster will carry an identification number on the top left corner. Stickers will be supplied on request at desks located in the poster area. Each poster-board will carry two identification numbers in the top left-hand corner to differentiate the two poster sessions:
above, the identification numbers of posters to be hung on that particular board during Session I,
below, those to be hung on the board during Session II.

Authors whose poster carries an even number (ex: s7'.m1.p12) are asked to stay next to their poster during the first day of their session (Saturday for Session I and Tuesday for Session II). Authors whose poster carries an odd number (ex: s2.m1.p9) are asked to stay next to their poster during the second day of their session (Sunday for Session I and Wednesday for Session II).

Oxford Cryosystems Poster award

Candidate to the Oxford Cryosystems, Cambridge Data Bank or IUCr Poster
awards should also place the appropriate sticker below the poster
number. These stickers are also available on request at the ECM-19 reception desk.

Oxford Cryosystems will be awarding a prize of 250 pounds sterling (˜ 2 500 FF) to the best poster describing work in low temperature crystallography. The award will be made for either a description of low temperature equipment or for any research in which low temperatures are the main feature.
This prize is awarded by an independent panel of judges set up by the ECM-19 organisers in Nancy.

Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre award

CCDC Poster Prizes in Chemical Crystallography for Younger Scientists

The Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre is sponsoring three poster prizes in chemical crystallography for younger scientists. The scheme begins at ECM19 in Nancy, where each award has a monetary value of USD250 together with a commemorative item.
Posters should report original research in the field of chemical crystallography or the application of crystallographic information to structural chemistry. This definition shall include advances in instrumental, experimental, theoretical or computational techniques that contribute to this field.

Candidates should not be more than 35 years of age on the 1st January 2000.
Eligible posters must be identified by a "CCDC" sticker, which will be readily available at the meeting, and the ECA will establish an independent panel to judge the contributions.

Candidate to the Oxford Cryosystems or Cambridge Data Bank Poster awards should also place the appropriate sticker below the poster number. These stickers are also available on request at the ECM-19 reception desk.
