Create in PowerPoint and submit a .pptx
Audio and Video encouraged
Use universal formats ( .mp3, .m4a, .mp4)

INTRODUCTION & OBJECTIVES

3. AIMS Tips for a successful poster
Simplify everything, avoid information overkill
Leave ample space around your text. Don’t overcrowd your poster.
Use photographs and diagrams instead of text(.PNG format is preferred)
Spell check and get someone else to proof-read your final version.

4. MATERIALS & METHOD The titles and slide sequence are a guide only.
Check out the LASA 2016 Posters on last years website: lasaposters.paperlessevents.com.au
The layout is only a guide. You may choose to add more or less image/text boxes and move them about as required.
Creativity is encouraged, but keep it clear and readable.

5. RESULTS Hyperlink and include digital references where necessary.
Hyperlinking PDFs is a good way of providing additional information to your audience ( you will need to upload the PDF you wish to hyperlink to, separately from your poster in the upload portal)
Think about the audience that will view your Digital Poster post conference –
embed videos,
YouTube videos
and audio commentary to effectively get your point across
Use standard fonts ( if you are using a font that we don’t have on the system, your conversion will revert to a standard font. Contact the helpdesk if you would like to use a certain font that you have downloaded to be on the safe side)

6. CONCLUSIONS
Please try to capture your main points about your case within the 10 slide limit.
Using Hyperlinks to external links, PDFs or videos can effectively provide information you might not be able to fit into your poster.
Delegates will be able to contact you through the system if they have any questions or if they want to meet at the conference to discuss your work – make sure your address is correct & add your social media handles!
