A collection of notable posters (and a few presenters) and every known book devoted to academic conference posters.
Better Posters blog and book
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.
Better Posters book
Out now from Pelagic Publishing and fine bookstores.

Microblogging
I sometimes discuss posters on Bluesky at (@DoctorZen.net).
Previously, I posted on Twitter: @Better_Posters. That account is maintained for archival purposes. No new content is posted there.

Poster design course
If you crave a guided tour of poster creation, Animate Your Science offers an online course on poster design.
I co-authored five self-paced online tutorials here.
