Chartway Arena is part of the University Village project, a 75-acre (30 ha) development that features a shopping center that includes restaurants, offices, research labs and residences with connections to the campus. It has 7,319 seats, 862 upper club/priority seats, 16 suites, and a sco reboard.

"The Ted" was designed by -based architecture firm and seats 8,639 for basketball games and 9,520 for concerts. In addition to its use for home basketball games and cheerleading competitions, the complex is used to host family-oriented events as well as concerts, lectures, graduation ceremonies, and career fairs.

NanoBioTech's Biomedical Innovation and Integrated Health Systems (BIIHS) 2026 Conference will be held on May 21, 2026, at the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Ted Constant Convocation Center. The event will bring together leading experts, industry partners, students, and staff to discuss cutting-edge developments in biomedical research and integrated health systems.

The conference will showcase advances in diagnostics, therapeutics, biomaterials, nanotechnology, environmental health, education, and the materials and computational research that enable these technologies.

The conference format includes plenary talks from invited speakers of international renown and oral presentations describing new research selected based on their originality and scientific quality. 2-minute snapshot oral presentations will precede the poster sessions.
 

• A highly focused 1-day conference , single-track oral sessions
• World-renown plenary speakers
• Oral snapshot poster presentation of each poster
• Awards for oral and poster presentations
• The beautiful and relaxed setting at the TED Constant Convocation Center

Poster Presentation Guidelines

Dimensions:

Maximum 36" × 48". The recommended poster format is a standard landscape poster.

Content:

• Title: The title of your poster should appear at the top with lettering of at least 42 pt font size. Below the title, place the names of authors and their affiliations.
• Text: Text should be readable from five feet away. Use a minimum font size of 17 pt. Keep the text brief.
• Figures: Each figure should have a brief caption. Figures should be numbered consecutively according to the order in which they are first mentioned in the poster. Make sure that the text and the visuals are well integrated.

The poster boards onsite will have a number that directly correlates with each poster in the conference program. Please place your poster on the assigned board.

Authors must print their poster and hang up and remove it before and after the poster session.

Oral & Spotlight Presentation Guidelines

Oral presentations are 15 minutes in length. 12 minutes for presentation time and three minutes for questions. Presenters are required to upload their PowerPoint files to the conference computer at least 15 minutes before the presentation section.

Spotlight presentations are 2-minute presentations with a static slide. Selected poster presenters will give spotlight presentations. Presenters are required to submit their PowerPoint slide to cbeinfo@odu.edu by Saturday, May 3. The PowerPoint slide must include your assigned poster number.
