David Go, Professor, and Chair in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering will present how to design a scientific poster that attracts the reader’s eye, uses the right amount of background for contextual clarity, and conveys your research results clearly and without hyperbole. This talk will also cover the “poster blurb,” a 30-second to 3-minute oral presentation that can leave the reader with a deeper appreciation for the significance of your results, your technical skills and intellectual contribution to the research project, and your professionalism. Finally, Prof. Go will cover the mechanics of how to put the poster graphics together.
