On posters, graphs are better than tables. There is not much that can be presented in a table that cannot be presented in a graph.A collection of notable posters (and a few presenters) and every known book devoted to academic conference posters.
Academic conference posters are often ugly, with tiny text, confusing layouts, and dubious colour schemes. This blog and book is about making posters informative and beautiful.
This blog usually updates on Thursdays.
Not the viral video. That’s #BetterPoster (singular) on social media.

Would love to see good examples of displaying correlation and regression data. I don't think graphs get the job done in this case.
Genomics data. And there is SOOOO much of it. Back in the old days you would have made a whole poster about the data in one row of the table.
