* The poster should present recent developments.
* The poster should be clear about the ‘what, why & how’ of the investigation.
* The results and conclusions should be presented in a well organized way.
* The poster must be understandable to more than just a small group of specialists.
* Dutch organizations should be involved in the presented work, preferably MinacNed members, MicroNed or NanoNed participants.
* At least one of the researchers should be present during the conference to explain to interested parties the content of the work.
* Not everybody has time to read about 100 posters. It must be easy to determine the subject and scope of the poster.
