Accessibility doesn’t happen by chance

Today, there is an encore presentation of work on conference presentation accessibility I helped with. This work was presented back in January at the European meeting of the International Society of Medical Publication Professionals. For the annual meeting in the United States, this work got a new version of the poster:

Are conference presentations accessible? Key takeaways:  Conference attendees with accessibility needs want online access; uncluttered posters; slides with mixed text/images

I was not involved in the design of this poster apart from offering a few comments. You can see how it compares to the first version on Figshare. I am quite happy with how this version came out!

The conference website has a nice online version of the poster, along with a seven and a half minute explainer video if that’s your jam.

Update, 26 April 2023: This poster won an award! 🏆
