Use the following instructions when preparing your poster:
- Your display should include your "presentation number" of the abstract, title, and author(s).
- You have complete freedom in displaying your information in figures, tables, text, photography, etc. Figures should be designed to be viewed from a distance and should use clear visible graphics and large type. Color can be effective if used sparingly; use saturated dark colors on white background and rich, bright colors on dark backgrounds.
- The presentation must cover the same material as the abstract.
- Briefly describe procedures and materials. Define all trade names first, then use generic names throughout. All compounds and drugs must be identified.
- Prepare all illustrations neatly and legibly beforehand, in a size sufficient to be read at a distance of 8 feet (240 cm). Hand-lettering should be at least 3/8 inch (1cm) high. Shade block letters if possible. Typed material should be prepared with large type. Remember -- a series of typewritten sheets attached to the poster board is not an acceptable poster.
- It is helpful to viewers if the sequence to be followed is indicated by numbers, letters, or arrows.
- Please do not write or paint on the poster board.
- BRING YOUR OWN velcro or tape. Pushpin or staples will NOT work to mount your poster. Supplies will NOT be available and provided on site!
- Attach a small photograph of yourself to the poster so that other participants can recognize you as the presenter.
- The IADR does not accept reponsibility for materials left at the poster board after the tear-down time for your designated day. Remove all background materials when you remove your poster.
