Guidelines for Poster Presentation

To prepare for your poster presentation, which includes a 5-minute presentation to the judges, please adhere to the following guidelines:

Poster Format

  • The recommended poster format is 36 inches by 48 inches (91.4 cm x 121.9 cm).
  • You can use other format, but keep in mind that place is limited and each board is shared with another presenter. The size of each board is 48 inches x 96 inches.

Poster Setup and Presentation Sessions:

  • To minimize traffic, there will be two poster presentation sessions.
  • Posters can remain on display for the entire duration of the event.
  • Presenters are encouraged to set up their posters in the morning.
  • Poster numbers will be provided at the registration table.
  • Pins are provided.
  • Presenters are responsible for removing their posters after the last poster presentation session to streamline the storage of the boards by our volunteers.

Poster evaluation:

  • You will have a maximum of 5 minutes to present your poster to the judges.
  • Practice your presentation to ensure you can effectively convey the key points of your research within the allotted 5-minute timeframe.
  • Focus on the most important aspects of your research during your presentation. Be prepared to answer questions from the judges.

Poster Content and Design:

  • Clarity and Conciseness: Ensure your poster is clear, concise, and effectively communicates your research information. Use visuals (figures, tables, graphs) to enhance understanding.
  • Readability: Use a font size that is easily readable from a reasonable distance. Consider using a larger font for the title, author names, and section headings.
  • Logical Flow: Organize your poster content in a logical flow (e.g., introduction, methods, results, discussion, conclusion). Use headings and subheadings to guide the viewer.
  • Visual Appeal: Design your poster to be visually appealing. Use a consistent color scheme, and avoid overcrowding the poster with text.
