I think you are only nervous because of your anxiety about your current (though normal) situation. | |

Slides and talk announcements tend to have such wildly varying formatting that I'm pretty sure no one will actually notice. | |

As for your slides, you should probably mention the institution(s) that supported the research, if any, much as you would for a publication. I think I've seen some speakers leave this to a verbal statement at the start of the talk, but even on the title slide you should have room for a blurb like "Research partially conducted while at the University of Whosville". | |

| Apr 9, 2018 at 16:56 | comment | added | PandaPants | Thank you! I agree w/ what you recommend. You read it correctly, I'm borderline ashamed of my unaffiliated status, which is partially due to my postdoc being a terrible fit + ended badly (not in terms of research, I had an independent project, but in terms of my relationships with my "mentors" who really did 0 mentoring.) So on my slides, I basically just won't put any affiliation? on the poster the department sends around, there also won't be any affiliation underneath my name? (where - from what I've seen at my own universities - there's usually an affiliation). Thanks! | |
