Poster Review

05 July 2019

Today, we reviewed and looked at many different science research posters. Some were done by people with PhDs and have been researching a certain topic for years. Some were also done by EVO students like myself who did a summer internship. We narrowed down what makes a poster good and what we can include in our final projects at the end of the summer. 

1. Simplicity- keeping the poster simple with less wording makes it concise and easy for other viewers to read. It helps them understand the essentials of your research. 
2. Intros, Methods, Data, and Conclusions- all the posters that we reviewed had these columns/sections that were titled these in order for the audience to follow along what you researched. 
3. Pictures- gives the audience a visual of the work you did.
4. Explanations- if there are big words, you should explain it because you can't expect everyone to understand that particular word. 

I hope I can follow these notes in order to make the perfect research poster at the end of my summer!
