POSTER PRESENTATION :

Poster : Participants in the session will be provided with display boards and push pins to present their posters. They are responsible for bringing the poster elements, as well as printed copies of their paper if desired. The display boards measure 1.20 m by 1.80 m.

Visual Impact: The title must be clearly visible and readable from a distance of 5 meters. At least 50% of the surface should be dedicated to images, graphs, or tables. A poster overloaded with text is not appealing. Use a simple graphic design with colors: reserve black and blue for text. For other elements, limit yourself to three distinct and contrasting colors. Avoid pastel tones, as they are not easily visible from a distance. If possible, include one or two high-quality images, which always draw attention. The poster should be easy to read and follow. Whenever possible, prioritize visual information over text. Reduce text to keywords and limit sentences. A reader can comfortably read at most two to three sentences in front of a poster. Avoid unnecessary information. If you wish to provide more details, place printed copies of a text near the poster for attendees to take. Use a specific color for titles to distinguish them from the rest of the text.

Images: All images must be accompanied by an explanatory caption.

Layout: Design your poster using a two-column format. Use color blocks or frames to clearly separate sections for objectives, methods, results, conclusions, and perspectives. Highlight the conclusions prominently. Clearly indicate the reading order of the poster using numbers or arrows.
