  3. Anatomy of a Scientific Poster • Title: A well thought out title will attract views and will clarify the subject matter of the poster. • Abstract: Make it very short; remember, the poster itself is already a condensed report of your work. Brevity is key! • Introduction: When constructing your introduction try to keep it to 1-2 Paragraphs (150 words) • Material/Methods: Cover the materials and methods used in your research process. Good place for images, charts and graphs. • Results: Begin with initial summary of your results. 2nd paragraph describe what your data means. • Conclusions: Briefly review your research questions and the results you obtain. • References: Cite all references. • Acknowledgments: Acknowledge people who have helped your with your work. Less is more (400 words max.). Be selective when deciding what images, charts, and graphs make it onto your poster!
