E-Posters session
E-Posters sessions will be held on the Gather Town platform..
Gather Town is an interactive 2D platform replica of real spaces look like a video game, each participant moves freely its avatar using the arrows of the computer keyboard. Participants will be able to move around freely and view the posters of their choice on their computer screen, while interacting with the poster presenter and with the other participants nearby through a video call, launched automatically.
