Q1. When and how can I upload my poster or oral presentation slides?

A1. Once an abstract has been accepted, Submitting author, Corresponding author or Presenting author may upload the poster or oral presentation via the following link: https://sciforum.net/profile/dashboard/submissions?tab=0. All files must be submitted in PDF format. If the contribution has already been published online, the upload option may no longer be available. In that case, please send your presentation to iocltc2026@mdpi.com, and we will upload it on your behalf.

Q2. Are co-authors listed in the program?

A2. The conference program lists only presenters. Co-authors are included in the Conference Abstract Book.

Q3. Do I need to register as a presenter?

A3. Presenters do not need to register under a separate “presenter” category; however, all participants, including presenters, must register for the conference in order to access the Abstract Book, presentations, and recordings.

Q4. If co-authors wish to view posters and presentations, do they need to register?

A4. Yes. Access to posters and presentations is restricted to registered participants only.

Q5. How do I access the online conference, and when will the access links be sent?

A5. All registered participants will receive a registration confirmation. Access instructions, including Zoom links for the live sessions, will be sent by email a week before the conference dates (16-17 November 2026). Please also check your spam or junk folder. If you still have not received the email 3 days before the conference, kindly contact iocltc2026@mdpi.com.

Q6. Will the live sessions be recorded, and can I request that my presentation be excluded from the recording?

A6. Yes. The live sessions will be recorded and subsequently made available on the conference webpage. If you would prefer your presentation not to be included in the recording, please inform us in advance.

Q7. I cannot attend the live event, although I have registered. Will I still be able to access the sessions?

A7. Yes. Your registration for the live online event includes access to recordings of talks and poster presentations. The recordings will be available on the conference website after the event.

Q8. Will my certificate indicate the type of presentation (e.g., online oral presentation or poster)?

A8. Certificates are issued in the following two categories: attendance certificates and presentation certificates. Poster presentation certificates are awarded to authors whose abstracts have been accepted and posters have been uploaded. Oral presentation certificates are awarded to presenters who deliver their talks during the live conference sessions. All registered participants who attend the live sessions on 16-17 November 2026 will receive a certificate of attendance.
