Remaining poster slots will be awarded on a first come basis. Please submit your poster title
and abstract as soon as possible.
The Materials Research Institute will be printing the posters for CrossOver 2007 if submitted
by the deadline. After e-mailing your poster abstract, you will need to submit your electronic
poster to MRI using their electronic dropbox. The Web address for the MRI dropbox for CrossOver
2007 is: http://www.mri.psu.edu/crossoverposter.
We will not use a poster template for this year’s event. Poster size is 46"x 36" and
the preferred format is a .PDF file. MRI can also take .PPT, .PSD, .JPG, and .TIF files. If you
are worried about font translation, be sure to submit a PDF file with the fonts embedded.
If your poster is being printed by MRI, the event staff will take care of hanging your poster
for you. During the event, researchers (or designate) will need to be by their posters from 5
p.m. to 6:20 p.m. on Tues., Sept. 4 for the evening reception which will be held at the 3rd and
4th Floor Bridge of the Life Sciences Building and from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM on Wed., Sept. 5
at the Alumni Hall, HUB-Robeson Center.
