2026 Poster Presentation Guidelines
Preparing your poster
Your poster should be eye-catching and professional while effectively communicating your research. It doesn't need to be professionally produced, but consider these tips:
- • Use clear, concise language in English
- • Avoid all capital letters; they can be visually confusing
- • Use properly labelled graphs instead of raw data
- • Keep the design simple, with minimal text and no redundancies
- • Focus on visuals such as graphs, figures, or photographs; use text sparingly to support them
- • Include QR codes for additional scientific content and sources of funding
- • Print your title and authors as stated in the abstract submission
- • Prepare a brief (<4 minutes) oral guide to accompany your poster during viewing
- • Consider printing on fabric for sustainability; suppliers like Science Posters offer suitable services
