\begin{posterbox}[name=abstract, column=0, span=2, below=headerbg]{}
Put the long abstract here; template recommends that it spans 2-3 lines of the whole poster text width. Slightly different designs are possible (e.g.~set the span of this box to 1, and continue the right column below `headerbg').
\end{posterbox}

\begin{posterbox}[name=boxleft, below=abstract, column=0]{Box in the left part of the poster}
Stuff from the left goes here.

Maybe also pictures.
\end{posterbox}
\begin{posterbox}[name=boxright, below=abstract, column=1]{Another box, now more on the right}
Stuff from the right goes here.

Maybe more pictures.
\end{posterbox}

% Footer editing starts here; you have a bit of space to put posterboxes below
% 'footersep'; which is the position of the thick orange line below.
%

\begin{posterbox}[name=footer, below=footersep, column=0]{Contact}
Your Name Here % if including more names, \underline the presenting person

\texttt{your.email@institute.here}

Your Institute, Your Town, Your Country
\end{posterbox}

\begin{posterbox}[name=funding, below=footersep, column=1]{Funding}
Put all your institute logos here.

These should also include EU flag, and the logo of your corresponding ELIXIR node and/or funding source.
