Poster preparation guidelines

  • The poster must contain the following elements: author(s) and institution (positioned at the top); a brief introduction, methods, results and conclusions (positioned further down the poster)
  • A photograph at the top right corner will help the audience to identify the presenting authors(s).
  • A poster is not a vehicle to present the details normally contained in a scientific paper. Make sure that the message is clear and simple.  Text should be kept to a minimum and presentations, e.g., graphs, histograms and photographs are strongly encouraged.
  • Appropriate use of colour improves the readability.
  • Lettering: Guidelines for minimum font sizes (letter height) are as follows:
    • Poster title: 20mm
    • Author(s), institution: 13mm
    • Headings: 13mm
    • Body text: 9mm
  • The language of the poster should be English.

Poster format:

  • All posters will be placed on panel boards in portrait orientation.
  • Poster size: A0 (84.1 cm x 118.9 cm)
