EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF A SCIENTIFIC POSTER

2-hour science
writing workshop

A scientific poster is an excellent way to network and promote your research. It informs others of advances in your work and presents your main results. However, a poster is neither a scientific article, nor a full presentation. What are the qualities of a scientific poster? How much text should it include? Which illustrations should you choose? This workshop presents 9 criteria to evaluate the attractiveness of a poster.
