Description
In your poster presentation, you have to present a study of any medical or health related topic. This can be pair work or group work.
Your poster should show:
1: What the study is about (abstract or into).
2: It should show how they conducted the data (this is called methodology).
3: It should show the findings of the study (results)
This is the general overview of any study, and it can have more elements. (for example: complications they faced during this study)

*You can see examples of poster presentation in the chapter slides.
The presentation will start from next week.
Enter your title here – do not capitalize the first letter of each word. Write it as a sentence.

circles, squares or straight lines.
