Listed below are several websites on developing and presenting scientific
posters:
-
Poster Guidelines: A poster is simply a static, visual
medium (usually of the paper and board variety) that you use to
communicate ideas and messages. The difference between poster
and oral presentations is that you should let your poster do
most of the 'talking'; that is, the material presented should convey
the essence of your message. However, that does not mean that you
can disappear to the pub or where ever you fancy. You have to
'stand-by-your-poster'! Your task as the presenter is to answer
questions and provide further details; to bask in praises or suffer
difficult questions; and to convince others that what you have done
is excellent and worthwhile.
-
Poster Presentations:
Posters are widely used in
the academic community, and most conferences
include poster presentations in their
program. Research posters summarize
information or research concisely and
attractively to help publicize it and
generate discussion.
-
Designing Conference Posters: Some
gratuitous advice on how to prepare posters
for scientific meetings, research
conferences, and similar gatherings of nerds
who want to share their stuff on really big
pieces of paper. Use it to improve your next
poster, or share it with friends who really
need help.
-
Design of
Scientific Posters: Posters are a special type of
presentation. When well designed, they are not simply journal papers
pasted onto boards. Nor are they mounted sets of presentation visuals.
Rather, posters, when effectively designed, are something in between. This
web page discusses the special situation that a scientist or engineer
faces when designing a poster and then suggests some guidelines to address
that situation.
-
Creating a Scientific Poster: Guidelines
and technical requirements to prepare a
poster presenting your work to the
scientific community.
