I'm about to submit my first poster for a conference, and so this is my first experience of 'doing' posters. I wonder whether anyone would be prepared to comment on it if I email it them?? Please message personally if you'd be prepared to!
Thanks

Pamplemouse - would be really interested to hear of your experiences of what's involved getting a poster sorted out for a conference if you care to share.

Sorry I can't help any other way as I am still in the "what do we have to do then? stage but wish you the very best with it.

Ergogirly, I've a hectic day but will try and start off some 'tips' later!

Hi Pamplemousse

Your post reminded me of my first experience of presenting a poster... there are some tips and things here on my old blog. Whilst this first poster I made wasn't really the best (too much information really)... the experience was a good one and although I was nervous - eventually I realised that presenting the poster was just a good way of discussing my research, getting feedback from conference visitors, etc. and in a much less intimidating way than presenting orally. Good luck with yours and enjoy the experience. :-)

Just preparing a poster for a conference next week. Those links have been massively helpful so thanks ever so much. Now busy turning a jumbled mess into something that I'd be happy for others to see. Cheers again.
