Guidelines for the Preparation of a Poster Presentation

A poster should be a visual representation of reviewed material, which can initiate an informal discussion. 

• Size - Posters should be 4 feet (120 cm) height x 2.6 feet (80 cm) width.

• Content:

1. Title 
2. Authors and Affiliation
3. Introduction 
4. Methods 
5. Results and Discussion 
6. Conclusions (This is particularly valuable to readers and should always be included.) 
7. References 

• Flow The flow of the chart should be clear and logical. Individual pages should be numbered.

• Handouts Ideally one-page handouts with overview of poster and contact details

• Presenter Photographs Along with a contact detail whilst you are at Congress i.e. mobile telephone number

• Register of Interest A sheet of paper for people whom would like further details to leave contact details

At least one author of the poster should be present at conference. Presenters should bring their posters with them to the conference, and should expose them up 30 minutes before the poster session starts, and be certain to take them down after the poster session.
