Useful Presentation Tips
The abstract should
summarize the pertinent results and conclusions. The introduction should
state the purpose of the work in relation to previous work in the field. The
results section should indicate the most important findings. The conclusions
should give the interpretation and the significance of the results.
The references to previous
work may be appropriate. Include your usual contact details (e.g. an Email
address) to allow delegates to follow up any discussion.
Your display should consist
chiefly of keywords , diagrams , photographs , etc. Colour
photographs are particularly attractive in a poster display. Diagrams and
graphs should have clear captions. All lettering should be easy to read.
Handwritten text or diagrams are not recommended. All graphs and diagrams
should be drawn with thick lines (preferably 1mm or more in width). Use
colour to emphasise important features.
The poster display is
important . You are recommended to take as much trouble with it as you did
in preparing your written paper.
