I quickly made this template for a #betterposter after seeing so many great examples led by @mikemorrison. This uses the {posterdown} #rstats package where you can create a beautifully designed poster, quickly and efficiently, using #markdown. See the 📦at github.com/brentthorne/po…

Some features:
✅ Reproducible (LIVE) HTML poster (ie moving GIFs if you're into that)
✅ Printable to PDF
✅ Supports dynamic adding of author names/ affiliations (plus twitter handle)
✅ Supports google fonts...

...
✅ Auto generated Figure/Table caption numbers
✅ Auto generated citation and bibliography generation (integration with @zotero)
✅ Did I mention reproducible?
✅ Simple colour adjustment for poster to match you lab/company/school design requirements...

...
More to come down the road with the help/ support/ feedback from the wonderful #rstats and #betterposter communities! Happy Postering Folks 🙃

Here is the portrait version for anyone who is interested:
