Poster for MFD Summer School 2025
Short blog entry here. I have spent 2 weeks working on this poster with the guidance of my Ph.D. supervisor and I kinda wanna share the fruits of this arduous and somewhat unnecessary labour :>
In any case, doing graphical things in LaTeX is unfun and I hope the beamer theme template (see GitHub link below) will help streamline the LaTeX academic poster-making workflow.
Get the LaTeX and pdf files here: https://github.com/Kai-Wen-Lee/Poster_Template_Academic.git
And here are some helpful resources regarding poster making and choosing colours. It is quite informative and will aid you tremendously in your quest to fulfil the most obsessive and nitpicky academics out there.
For a good guide on choosing colours for scientific figures: Colors in Scientific Figures
For a general guide into making a good poster: Better Posters. In particular, check out the section on good posters.
For a more specific guide for scientific posters: Posternerd Academic Poster Tutorial
For the excellent example posters: beamer Poster GitHub repository. I used the
beamerTheme.sty
here as reference for my own.
I will constantly make changes to the template after each conference.
