Introduction
The presentation of our research is one of the most important bases for the transfer of information to the scientific community. Given the vast amount of scientific information available online and in other communication channels, it is important to develop the ability to synthesise and to highlight the most relevant aspects of the research, which will be key to a successful presentation.
Other aspects of the art of communication are the selection of the right iconography as well as the design of the presentation, your supporting tool when presenting research.
Pre-course requirements
None.
Objectives
Describe the various tools for the presentation of research in different formats (lecture and research poster).
