Description
Poster sessions are an integral part of scientific conferences. Their purpose is to highlight research results, visualize them, and stimulate discussion. To draw your audience in, you need a clear content structure, a text format optimized for best readability and well-chosen graphics. Above all, you need to think well through how to compellingly organize your contents on the required poster format.
Though – designing an attractive poster is only half the story – a succinct and convincing presentation is just as important to convey your scientific topics. The workshop teaches design skills in combination with presentation expertise and offers you practical training on how to use these skills for a targeted science communication.
Methods: Lectures, analysis, practical exercises, group work, video recording, presentations, feedback.
Participants are requested to bring the content material (texts and graphics) for a poster
or recently designed examples. Please equip your laptop with PowerPoint or a comparable application and make sure that you have a functional microphone and webcam available.
* Creditability within the kick-off seminar
For reasons of respect and fairness towards all participants and the workshop leaders, participants who miss more than 10% of the workshop are considered not to be present. You will therefore not receive a certificate and you will not be able to use the workshop in question to unlock funds or acquire further qualifications.
Before you register, please confirm with your supervisor/employer that you are free to participate in the course on that date.
