Presenting in a poster session is a great opportunity to promote your research and expand its impact. But only if you can get people to stop and look at the poster. In this video I simulate my thought process when I’m attending a poster session and deciding whether to talk to the presenter or not. Can you notice what the most common problems are to avoid them on your next poster? Then, watch my related videos on YouTube for more poster tips.
