Introduction
Make sure you cover only the key studies that directly pertain to your study. You don’t want to waffle on about everything because you don’t have the space. So you have to prioritize; only vital information should make its way onto a poster. Be sure to include your
AIM
HYPOTHESES
These are vitally important on a poster, they show your audience what it is your poster is all about. People should be able to read your poster and understand what you wanted to achieve without asking you any questions.
Methods
You need to summarize your method here but don’t forget to include the basic elements just as you would in a normal lab report. This might be a poster, but it follows the same pattern.
You can use bullet points here if it’s a bit easier
Can make it all a lot easier to read
Particularly for non-specialists in your project area
Make sure you include enough detail on your procedure so it is clear what you have done in your experiment. You want people to focus on the results you’ve presented rather than ask questions about what you did.
Results
You must put only your most interesting results here – you probably don’t have space to report everything you found. Stick to main interactions and analyses unless you have space for more. Don’t think that shrinking the font will help you, it will just make people squint when they’re reading your poster, then you’ll give them a headache when all you want is to give them information. It is better to have interested people asking you questions than grumpy people with all the information walking away with eye strain!

Discussion and Conclusions
It’s good to put conclusions in a separate box, it makes them stand out. If you have space link to the previous research you mention in your introduction, but try not to include your entire discussion as this really is just a space for conclusions – you don’t have space on a poster for a full discussion. Interested people can ask if they want to discuss any of your results with you. Make sure you include your most important main conclusions here and why you drew those conclusions.
