Describe your study on the left to generate your own poster
A conference poster usually costs an evening: hunting for a departmental template, resizing figures that were built for a two-column paper, and nudging text boxes until the columns line up. This scientific poster generator skips that. Describe the study the way you would explain it to a colleague β question, methods, numbers, takeaway β and the poster comes back already sectioned, already laid out, already at print resolution.
Paste your abstract, or write out the pieces: title, authors and affiliation, background, methods, the results you want shown, and your conclusions. Name the charts you need β a Kaplan-Meier curve, an ROC curve, a CONSORT flow diagram, a box plot by group. The more specific the numbers you give, the closer the draft lands.
Choose 4:3 for the 48 Γ 36 in landscape board most conferences use, or 3:4 portrait for an A0 or A1 stand. The scientific poster generator builds the whole thing in one pass: a title bar with your authors, section headers, columns that read left to right, the charts you asked for, and a references block at the bottom.
Read the draft against your data β every value, axis label, and citation. Export 4K PNG at print scale for the poster shop, or SVG on paid plans if you want to open it in Illustrator or Inkscape and adjust type before printing. Changing the layout is a re-generate, not a redraw.
Graduate students Β· Researchers Β· Lab and course leads
First poster, fifth poster, or twelve posters for a lab that all need to match β the same research poster maker covers each case. What changes is how much you hand it: students usually start from an abstract, established researchers usually start from a figure list they already have.
First conference, first poster
Nobody teaches poster layout. You have an abstract, a few results, and a submission deadline, and the departmental template is a 2009 PowerPoint file nobody can find. Describe the study and get a poster that already looks like the ones that win prizes at your conference.
Several conferences a year
You know exactly what belongs on the board. What costs you the evening is the assembly β rebuilding paper figures at poster scale, balancing three columns, and getting it to the print shop before they close. Generate the draft, swap in your own figures if you prefer, print.
Supervising a room full of posters
Eight undergraduates, one research day, eight posters that should not look like eight different departments made them. Generate a consistent draft for each project so your feedback is about the science instead of about font sizes and column widths.
Six disciplines, one prompt each
Every poster below came from a single plain-text description β no template, no manual layout. Click an example to load its prompt and rewrite it around your own study. The data in these examples is illustrative, not published research.
Oncology poster with survival curve and enriched genera
Clinical informatics poster with ROC curve and cohort table
Marine ecology poster with a site map and survival curve
Materials poster with a cell schematic and impedance spectra
Psychology poster with CONSORT diagram and forest plot
Public health poster with a lag response curve
Most AI tools in this space stop at the figure and leave the assembly to you: generate a diagram, drop it into PowerPoint, arrange the columns yourself. This research poster maker produces the finished board β header, sections, charts, and references in one pass β and is direct about the one step it cannot do for you, which is checking that the numbers are yours.
Header, Columns, Sections, References
One prompt returns the title bar with authors and affiliation, the section header bars, two or three balanced columns that read left to right, and the references block. You are not assembling pieces in PowerPoint afterwards β the poster arrives already composed.
Every account gets free credits on sign-up, enough to draft a poster and see whether the layout fits your conference. Paid plans add 4K print resolution, SVG export, and no watermark β pick one when you are printing rather than experimenting.

Dr. Priya Nair
Postdoctoral Fellow, Immunology, Karolinska InstitutetI had the abstract and four figures and two days. Pasted the abstract, asked for a Kaplan-Meier curve and a diversity box plot, and the draft came back sectioned the way our conference wants. I replaced two charts with my own and printed it.
Marcus Chen
PhD Candidate, Biomedical Informatics, NUSFirst poster I have ever made. I did not know what sections a poster needs or how wide the columns should be. The generator did that part, so the only thing I had to think about was whether my numbers were right.
FAQ
Describe the study, pick the board size, and get a composed poster in about a minute. Free credits on sign-up, no credit card, no design software to learn.
Background, Methods, Results, Conclusions
Posters are read standing up, in about two minutes, from left to right. The generator sections your content the way conference reviewers expect β background, methods, results, conclusions β and keeps each figure next to the claim it supports instead of collecting them in a gallery at the bottom.
Kaplan-Meier, ROC, CONSORT, Forest Plots
Ask for a Kaplan-Meier survival curve, an ROC curve with its AUC annotated, a CONSORT participant flow diagram, a forest plot with confidence intervals, a Nyquist impedance plot, or a lag response curve, and it draws that chart type with axis labels, legends, and error bars β not a generic bar graph standing in for it.
48 Γ 36 in Landscape or A0 Portrait
Generate 4:3 for the 48 Γ 36 in landscape board used at most North American conferences, or 3:4 for a portrait A0 or A1 stand. Output is 4K on paid plans, which holds up at poster scale β body text stays readable at arm's length rather than turning soft when it is enlarged.
A Review Step, Not a Fact Checker
The generator draws the values, labels, and citations from your prompt, and it will fill visual gaps on its own if you leave them open. Treat the draft as a layout you proofread: check every number, axis, unit, and reference against your data before the file goes to the printer.
Re-Generate Instead of Redrawing
Your advisor wants the results column moved, or the conference switched you from a landscape board to a portrait stand the week before. Edit the prompt and generate again rather than rebuilding text boxes. On paid plans you can also export SVG and adjust type in Illustrator or Inkscape.

Alejandra Rojas
Doctoral Researcher, Marine Biology, IESEAsked for a coastline site map with a scale bar and an 18-month survival curve for two groups. Both came out drawn properly on the first try. I have redrawn site maps in Illustrator before and it takes an afternoon.
Prof. Hiroshi Tanaka
Materials Science Faculty, Kyoto UniversityThe cell stack cross-section and the Nyquist plot were both recognizable versions of what we actually publish. I still corrected two impedance values by hand β it draws what you tell it, so what you tell it has to be right.
Tiana Whitfield
PhD Candidate, Educational Psychology, MichiganThe CONSORT flow diagram alone saved me an evening. Screened, excluded, randomized, lost to follow-up, analyzed β all the boxes in the right order with my own participant counts in them.

Dr. Emre Yildiz
Associate Professor, Environmental Health, BilkentThe conference moved us from a landscape board to A0 portrait nine days out. Changed the aspect ratio, generated again, done. Previously that meant rebuilding every column by hand.
Jordan Blakely
Master's Student, Ecology, McGillI am not a designer and it shows in everything else I make. This is the first poster of mine that did not look homemade, and my supervisor asked which template I used.
Dr. Fatima Al-Mansoori
Research Fellow, Sustainability, Zayed UniversityI generate the draft, then read it line by line against my results table before it goes anywhere. Two runs had a value I never gave it. Caught in proofreading, but that is a step you cannot skip.
