Research Posters

Research posters are used at academic conferences to summarize scholarly and creative projects in an engaging and visual way.  Posters contain a mix of text, charts, illustrations and other graphics to tell a story about the research.  At the conference, posters serve as an introduction to your project and invite conversation about it.
