Suggestions for Creating an Effective Poster
- Include a photo of yourself so attendees can recognize you.
- Use a short, straightforward title.
- Focus on conveying one clear message—avoid including your entire paper on the poster.
- Clearly state the objective of your research, its connection to patients, and its clinical relevance.
- Provide information about your methods and statistical analysis.
- Remember: less is more—aim for a balanced mix of visuals and text.
