User Design Principles Applied to Virtual Posters A virtual scientific poster! So, how do we do that? (10/28/2020)

Faculty:
Mike Morrison, Science Communication Designer; PhD Candidate, University of Michigan

Moderator:
Jason Gardner, PhD, Head of Scientific Services, CMC Connect

Webinar Overview:
The virtual scientific conference world is upon us and will be for the near future. How can you maximize the chance that your poster is noticed, is understood and could better advance medical science?

The answer lies in applying user-design (UX) principles to scientific communications. UX design aims to reduce the operational and cognitive cost of users.

Back from one of the most highly rated sessions of the 16th Annual Meeting, Mike Morrison of the #betterposter movement and Jason Gardner will continue to drive the scientific poster revolution. This time, they’ll talk about how UX can elevate your scientific posters in the virtual environment.

At the end of this session, participants should be able to:
  • Recap on the current deficiencies in the traditional scientific poster format
  • Understand what user design (UX) is and how it differs from graphic design
  • Understand the evidence supporting UX principles
  • Be able to apply UX principles to scientific poster design in a virtual setting
