3. Presentation Submission
- - All presentations must be uploaded via the SMBE2025 registration system BEFORE the day of your session. The conference staff/volunteer in your session room will download the latest version of the presentation files each morning. Late submissions or replacements will not be accepted after this point.

- * Accepted formats: PDF or PPT (max file size: 300MB).
- * For any upload issues, please contact us at smbe2025@ioz.ac.cn.

* Once uploaded, repeat the same steps to update the file—new uploads will replace the original.
4. Presentation Testing
- - All the speakers are welcome to visit the Speaker Ready Room to test your slides at least 30 minutes before your session.
- - This is especially important if your presentation includes videos, audio, or other multimedia to ensure smooth playback.
- - If you do not test in advance, any time needed to load your slides during the session will be counted as part of your presentation time.
