I would say that in general, the posters that did the best were very clear and required little explanation. They had good leading headers above all figures, basically outlining in a few words what the figures showed. They had summaries or conclusions that were very clear, and it was clear from the verbal exchange what the presenter had contributed to the research and that the presenter was an expert in their field.
