Poster presentation videos, presentation slides, and an abstract must be submitted no later than 5:00 PM, EDT, on Friday, August 18, 2023, to be considered for presentation. All posters will be considered, including research across the translational spectrum from basic science to community implementation and policy.

As a reminder, if you would like to submit a poster you will need to register for the meeting first. We look forward to receiving your registration and poster submission via this link Registration for the 2023 Indiana CTSI Annual Meeting.

Below, please find tips and resources to help as you format your materials.

DEVELOPING GREAT POSTERS

IU’s University Information Technology Services (UITS) has developed a training program about the basics of the research poster creation process. It can help you learn how to make research posters in your choice of design programs, including PowerPoint, Illustrator, and InDesign.

Mike Morrison, PhD candidate at Michigan State University, is also leading a movement for an updated academic poster format. Our CTSI education program team likes it, too. Check out the video below.
