Conference Poster Design: Exploring Principles & Formats

An interactive session on elements and principles of poster design. Additionally, we'll be looking at different formats and the reasons you might chose one or the other, from the standard paper-on-a-page to emerging formats including visual abstracts that focus on networking or quickly spreading ideas. This session will focus on design strategies for scientific conference posters, but these strategies are applicable for other disciplines as well.

Designing Slides & Presentation Visuals

You have a presentation coming up. You’ve dusted up your talking points and rehearsed what you’re going to say. But you’re concerned about the visual aid for your presentation—does it look good? Will it convey your message? Maybe it’s a slide deck. Maybe it’s a poster. Maybe it’s a physical object, or writing on a whiteboard. Maybe you haven’t even decided if you’re going to have a visual aid at all.
