Size
• Maximum poster size is 115 cm high and 88 cm wide.
• Materials must be easily read at a distance of 1.5 m.
• A poster printed on one large sheet is encouraged.
• Hand written posters are not accepted.

Layout
• Poster should have a logical organization. Most posters have sequential sections (e.g. Background, Aim, Methods, Results, Conclusion). Use regions of empty space between poster elements to differentiate and accentuate these elements.
• Data should be clear, concise and well-organized.
• Avoid everything that can make your poster look excessively busy, such as boxes around graphs and tables, and long sentences.
• Limit the number of different fonts, different sizes of fonts and different colours.

Title
• Aim for a short title.
• Size of the letters should be at least 96 point.
• State authors and affiliations below the title, in a smaller font.
• The title, author's name, and author’s affiliation are usually placed at the top and in the centre of the poster board.

Body text
• The text is more digestible if it is split into logical sections interspersed with graphics.
• Use bullet lists where possible.
• Minimize the amount of written text. Text should never dominate the poster.
• Use figures, tables graphs and photographs when appropriate.

Tables
• Avoid large tables. Make a selection of the most important results.
• Align decimal points.
• Title should inform about the information in the table.

Use of colour
• Use colour only to support the readability of your poster. One colour plus black offers best contrast.
• Restrained use of 2 - 3 colours for emphasis is valuable; overuse is not.
