Professional And Student Poster Guidelines

Poster Board Specifications

  • DIA will provide the following for poster presentations:
    • Freestanding 8ft. (L) x 4ft. (H) poster board
    • One chair
    • Push pins
  • Presenters must prepare a poster to fit a usable space of 3.5 ft. x 7.5 ft. poster board (three and a half feet high by seven and a half feet wide)
  • Posters made of heavy laminated materials usually take more than one person to set up and require many push pins to hang. Please consider using lighter weight materials
  • Materials must be easily read at a distance of 4ft. As a rule of thumb, use a font size of at least 14 point and double space
  • When choosing a background, remember that neutral or gray colors will be easier on the eyes than a bright color. In addition, color photos look best when mounted on gray
  • All poster presentations must be noncommercial and scientific in nature. Poster presentations may not be used as a marketing opportunity
  • Any mention of drug products must be limited to generic names, and not include logos or brand names in any area of the poster, including poster titles and handouts. Please refer to the DIA Policy Concerning Promotion of Products and Services from the Podium at DIA Sponsored Programs        
  • Suggested items to bring:
    • Presenters are encouraged to prepare 25 copies of their poster and/or abstract for attendee distribution at the meeting
    • Business cards for distribution and for networking opportunities

Please Note: The presenter must organize any special shipping arrangements needed. DIA will be unable to ship or store any material. DO NOT SHIP YOUR POSTER TO THE CONVENTION CENTER.
