We are very proud of last week’s Situation Room, which focused on the ever-present Poster Session. We know – they can be the bane of every graduate student’s conference, difficult to prepare for, full of anxiety. We had 4 volunteers present their posters to a panel consisting of a post-doc, faculty, and graduate student who has won several poster presentation awards and to ~30 people in the audience under situations that were specially tailored to their strengths and weaknesses. The review survey from the event shows that participants left feeling that they were better prepared for their next poster presentation after learning some general tips from the panelists and the in-depth discussion of the volunteers posters.
Thanks to all who came, and especially to our poster presenters! We hope it was useful to you.
