Well, today was the poster session and I must say: wow. There were so many posters there; some were better than others, but it got me thinking about the posters we're supposed to make for this BE Design Project. Now, my favorite poster was the 3D Breast Cancer DOT Poster. Why? Because it had everything laid out, nice and neat. Nothing was left to be unsaid, and best of all, I didn't need a big fat dictionary of biomedical terms to figure out what it was saying.
So maybe, we could incorporate the following into our design project poster:
1. Step-by-step process laid out, including an introduction and final applications.
2. Diagrams, charts, pictures etc - that really would help.
3. Inserting marketing schemes; in the poster session, it was obvious that marketing the research would be beneficial to the students and researchers there because it could help them get more funding, market their product, etc.
4. Use simple, but professional terms and integrate them with pictures.
5. Make it look neat.
Overall, I really enjoyed the poster session today. It opened my eyes to what an outstanding poster was and what posters got lost in the shuffle.
