A poster is only a brief representation of the project or issue. A poster usually contains around 800 to 1000 words (depending on what or how many illustrations you are using) and generally covers aspects such as the most important or interesting finding or thinking from or behind a project, any results (if applicable), and the main take-aways you would like other participants to remember from your work.
