This tutorial provides instruction on creating a coherent and inviting scientific poster. In its original form, this material was a real-time, live lecture and slide show presented to WISP interns a few weeks prior to the annual symposium at which they exhibit their research posters. Click here for information on the annual Karen E. Wetterhahn Science Symposium.

Initiated in 1992, the number of symposium participants has since then more than doubled, and the number of symposium attendees has grown along with it. Thus, in an effort to make poster production information available to a wider audience, WISP has established this web site. We gratefully acknowledge the support of a Presidential venture fund for improvements in undergraduate education supported by a grant from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. We hope you find it helpful! Be sure to give us feedback at the end.
