General Information
Poster presentations are an important part of ASPN 2026, allowing participants to engage in detailed discussions of their research with peers, scientists, and industry experts. Posters will be displayed throughout the symposium at the University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, with dedicated viewing and judging sessions.
All accepted posters must adhere to the following design and presentation standards to ensure uniformity and professional display. Presenters are encouraged to design clear, visually appealing, and scientifically rigorous posters that effectively communicate their research findings in the field of poultry nutrition and related sciences.
