Students you're invited to participate in a (free) #BetterPoster science communication workshop and poster competition, sponsored by the NSF EPSCoR EOD Council and the EPSCoR/IDeA Foundation. It's on February 18th from 3PM - 6PM CST, attendees will sign up for 30-minute time slots. Participants will receive individual consultation to either modify an existing research poster or create a new one in the #BetterPoster format. The finished product will be entered in a competition to win Visa gift cards and be featured on social media.
