Guidelines for poster presentation

Layout: Design a clear and organized layout with sections like title, introduction, methods, results, discussion, conclusion, and references. 

Font and Size: Use a readable font (Times New Roman) and maintain consistency. Headings should be bold, and text should be legible from a distance. Recommended font size is typically 36-44 points for headings and 24-32 points for body text. 

Title: Make the title concise, informative, and cantered at the top. Include author names and affiliations. 

Graphics and Images: Use high-quality graphics, charts, and images. Ensure they are labelled and referred to in the text. Maintain consistency in style and formatting. 

Text: Keep text concise. Use bullet points, short sentences, and avoid excessive jargon. Clearly articulate the research question, methods, and key findings. 

Citations: Include in-text citations for any information derived from other sources, and add a references section at the bottom of the poster. 

Colour Scheme: Choose a visually appealing colour scheme. Ensure good contrast between text and background. Stick to a limited colour palette for a professional look. 

Size: Standard poster size is often 36×48 inches. Verify any specific size requirements for your presentation. 

Headings and Subheadings: Organize information using headings and subheadings. Follow APA guidelines for formatting these. 

Review and Proofread: Thoroughly review and proofread your poster to eliminate errors and ensure clarity. Consider seeking feedback from colleagues or mentors
