2019 ePosters

An ePoster is a digital medium used to communicate a key idea related to research: It presents that idea in verbal and graphic ways. Unlike an oral presentation, an ePoster does (most) of the talking—it should stand on its own, be self-explanatory (even as it enables conversations with viewers).
