Developing a Poster Presentation
A poster presentation is an excellent way of showcasing an interesting
piece of work, an innovation or an issue you have researched.
It is also a good way of finding joint working partners, funders or
networking with others who have similar interests.
Scottish Drugs Forum can advise on the size of posters that can be
displayed on the available boards.
People making poster presentations pay the normal delegate rate - so,
in effect, poster presentation is free!
You should apply to SDF to have a poster for exhibition at the event:
Contact Austin@sdf.org.uk for support or information about poster
presentation.
