Abstract
A poster at a scientific meeting is an enlarged graphic display containing a title, the authors’ names and institution, and text and figures explaining research. This form of presentation was developed as a way to handle the increased size of meetings and the growing number of presenters. Where formerly all information was conveyed in 15 minute talks, now there is a choice of talk or poster or posters only. This method of presentation has advantages and limitations.
