Delegate Information

We're excited to welcome you to the Bradford 2025 BSN Annual Meeting, which is just around the corner! To help you prepare and make the most of your experience, please find some key pre-event information outlined below.

Programme

The programme is available on the Oxford Abstracts conference platform, but please note that the conference programme may be subject to change.


Please be aware that any details regarding the programme abstracts can be viewed by delegates only.


Please keep an eye on the announcements notice board at registration, on the conference platform, or on any of our social media accounts for any last-minute changes.

Conference Platform

This year, we’re excited to launch our new web-based conference platform, Oxford Abstracts, which requires no app download. However, you will need to set up an account.

We encourage all delegates to set up an account early to access the full conference programme, personalise their badge, and enter contact details. This enables:

  • Networking with other delegates
  • Submitting questions during sessions (chairs will review these for discussion)
  • Engaging with posters in the Poster Gallery through comments and questions

We hope the conference platform will help you stay connected, participate actively, and get the most from your conference experience.

Oral Presentations

Please check the conference programme to confirm when you are presenting. We advise speakers to send their PowerPoint presentations in advance.

Presentation Format

  • Selected Abstract Presentations: 10 minutes + 5 minutes for Q&A
  • Invited Presentations: 20 minutes + 10 minutes for Q&A

Your session chair will indicate when you have 3 minutes and 1 minute remaining. Chairs have been instructed to keep sessions strictly to time.

  • Email your PowerPoint presentation in advance to Dr Peter Nicholls
  • Email subject line: BRADFORD 2025 – PRESENTATION
  • Filename format: DateOfPresentation_LastName

Example: 010925_Smith.pptx

  • Deadline: Send your presentation at least a few days before the conference, if possible.

If you don’t send your talk in advance, speakers are kindly requested to upload their PowerPoint slides by 17:00 the day before their presentation. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate any other file formats.


If you are giving an oral presentation, we have put together some useful guidelines here.
