Notes:

1. Posters should be put up Thursday morning and remain up through Thursday and Friday, all breaks on those days will be in the poster room (Vermont A & B)
2. Breaks are 1/2 hour - this represents the time that coffee/juice are available - working sessions can adjust to use as much of this as they want.
3. Notation for sessions should be explained below
