- Avoid putting too much material and text on the poster.
- The heading should have letters at least 35mm high listing the title of the paper, authors, institution and its location. If necessary, please shorten the heading.

- Divide your poster into Introduction, Objectives, Methods, Results, Discussion and Conclusions. Each of these sections should be numbered in sequence with numbers 35mm high to guide the reader through the poster.
- The introduction should contain 3 to 5 telegraphic sentences outlining essential information necessary to understand the study and why it was done.
- The objectives of the study, the questions to be asked or the hypothesis to be tested should be clearly stated in as few words as possible.
- Outline your methods briefly, provide reference to previous methods and details only for new methods or important modifications of older ones.
- Results should be presented as graphs or tables. They should be self-explanatory and therefore please provide a clear legend including symbols. You may also want to provide an interpretation of the results below each panel.
- The discussion (if necessary) and conclusions should be succinctly stated on large type. Many viewers read this first, hence it should be easy to understand
