This is the poster template I designed for the UF Genetics Institute for their Genetics and Genomics PhD program students.
Each year, the UFGI hosts a symposium where the Genetics and Genomics PhD students can present their research. I was asked to update the poster template for the students and include cohesive visual elements for them to use.
This was the previous version of the abstract, which resulted in a lot of differently styled poster submissions.
I decided to create a quick design guide as a cheat sheet to aid any users in maintaining the visual style of their scientific layouts, and I set the text boxes in the PowerPoint template to all be the same font. I also included a variety of colorful icons and made both a horizontal and vertical version of the poster.
