SLU has a template for scientific posters. In the template you can change the different elements according to your needs (color, images, text, etc.)

Make your poster using the power point template for scientific poster. Making the poster in programs like Adobe InDesign is also an option, as long as the size/dimensions are the same (printable A1 size / 59,4cm x 84,1 cm / 9933 x 7016 px) and you adhere to the policies for use of the SLU logo, etc. Recommended resolution is 200-300 dpi.
