Promote the Work of Your University Lab at HFES

HFES invites university labs researching human factors/ergonomics to display a poster at ASPIRE, the International Annual Meeting. University laboratories conducting work in HF/E research and application to participate in the HFES University Lab Showcase at our annual meeting in Chicago, Il.  This showcase aims to demonstrate the variety of HF/E educational and research programs, not to describe specific research projects.


University lab posters may be attended by lab representatives, or they may be unattended. There is no proceedings paper associated with lab displays. Each lab (or school, if multiple labs from the same school wish to display a poster) is allocated 1/4 of a poster board measuring 4 feet high by 8 feet wide. Poster dimensions may not exceed 42” x 42” as two posters will share each side of the poster board for a total of four posters per board.

A limited number of spaces are available.

To reserve space to display your university's HF/E lab, submit your intent via the online form no later than 11:59 PM Eastern Time on Friday, August 29, 2025.  You will be required to submit the following information:

  • Name of lab and university
  • Name, telephone number, and e-mail address of the person responsible for the poster
  • Brief description of the lab

Space will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Confirmation and instructions for displaying your lab poster will be sent via e-mail.
