Poster Presentations
Health practitioners and researchers currently undertaking research have the opportunity to present a poster at the forum, and to engage delegates in rich discussion of their research during lunch and afternoon tea.
Display Posters
Delegates can provide a printed poster to be displayed on a board throughout the South West Health Research Forum. Please note:
- The organisers will not print posters on behalf of presenters.
- The face of the poster board is covered with Velcro-receptive fabric. Push pins will be provided for you to hang your poster.
Electronic Posters
Poster presenters can upload an electronic version of their final poster as a PDF file prior to the forum.
