Dear colleagues, researchers and those interested in research,

We invite you to participate at the 16th Science Get Together 2025 #SGT25.

The event will take place as a presence-only event and will focus on the presentation of research groups.

The SGT25 will be organised as a kind of exhibition, where research groups from the PMU, the University Hospitals Salzburg and Nuremberg and our partner institutions will present their teams and latest scientific work in the form of a poster exhibition.

The programme will be complemented by an inspiring keynote speech on current scientific topics. The event will end with the Research&Innovation Awards (RIA) ceremony, which will be handed to employees of the PMU & University Hospitals for outstanding research achievements.

You can register for the event here!

Upload your poster and abstract here!

Information for exhibitors

We are delighted that you would like to present your working group at SGT25!

In order to give you the greatest possible freedom of design, there are no fixed specifications for the design or structure of the poster. However, we would like to give you some suggestions that might be helpful when creating your poster:

Language and scope of the poster

  • To ensure broad comprehensibility, we ask that the poster be written in English.
  • You have the possibility to prepare up to two posters per working group.

Content of the poster

  • Who are we? #team
  • What are we working on? #work
  • Who do we work with? #network & partner

 

Profile for the “Book of Researchers”

In addition to the poster, each working group must prepare a profile, which will be published in the "Book of Researchers" (based on our abstract volume from previous years). This profile should present the information from the poster in condensed form as pure text.

Formal requirements for the profile:

  • Language: English.
  • Form: Clearly structured text without bullet points, tables or graphics.
  • Format: File in .docx format (MS Office 2007 or newer).
  • Maximum one DIN A4 page (check using the button: Preview Abstract Submission; .docx file - MS Office 2007 or newer required).
  • Members of the PMU or university hospitals please ensure correct affiliation.
     

Submission and exhibition

  • Submission: Contributions can be uploaded here online until March 31st 2025. The contributions (poster & profile) must be submitted by the announced deadline. Entries received after this deadline will not be considered.
  • Entries may only be submitted via the online form. Entries submitted via mail will not be accepted.
  • If you need to edit your submitted profile at a later date, this is possible until 12 May 2025. After that, our ''Book of Researchers'' will be printed.
  • Capacities: Due to limited exhibition space, the number of exhibition places is limited.
  • Notification: We will regularly inform registered exhibitors whether there is still capacity available.

Students who have to prepare a poster as part of their scientific work or those who would like to present a project independently of their working group can also present their contributions at the exhibition.
Both, poster and an abstract, must be prepared for this purpose. The abstract will be published in the "Book of Researchers" (based on our abstract volume from previous years).

Formal requirements for abstract and poster 

For participation at SGT25 and publication of the contribution in the Book of Researchers, the following requirements must be met:

(1) The abstract must be written in English and based on this template.

(2) The abstract contains complete sentences (no keywords, no lists) and is written in mixed case (upper and lower case letters).

(3) The abstract is formulated as pure text (no graphics/tables).

(4) The length of the abstract (incl. title, authors, affiliation etc.) must not exceed one DIN A4 page (check using the button: Preview Abstract Submission; .docx file - MS Office 2007 or newer required).

(5) The length of the individual sections (Objective, Methods, Results, Conclusions) may vary.

(6) Members of the PMU or university hospitals please ensure correct affiliation.

(7) By submitting the abstract, the authors agree to its publication in the Book of Researchers.

The following internal PMU drafts can be used as a template to ensure that the posters are formally correct: Template Nuremberg | Template Salzburg.
