Scientific poster course 2022

Course description
In this course you will learn how to create an eye-catching, engaging and effective scientific poster. First we will cover the contents of a poster and elements of design, and then discuss relevant software and tools to construct your poster. Finally we will give a crash course on how to use Google Drawings, BioRender, Servier Medical Art, Canva, Illustrator and Inkscape.
Closer to the CRG PhD Symposium date, we will offer small, hands-on practical sessions with the trainers where you can get advice, feedback and help with technical questions.     
  
Format 
The course will be online and sessions will be recorded and uploaded to CRG Moodle.
Workshops will be groups of 4-5 attendees and will be in person. We ask that students attend the course before signing up for workshops as it should follow on from what is taught during the course.   
 
Date 
Online course: Thursday, October 20th 2022 (09:30-17:00)
Presential small group workshops: between 1-18 November 2022, dates and times will be decided later.
