I'm a fan of the #BetterPosters approach to academic research poster design. So at @CARLProgram #CARLoquium, I ran down the expo hall and stopped for any poster whose design caught my eye. Here are my favorites.🧵

Got to work with 120 Early Career Researchers on poster + presentation design at NSF EPSCoR. Nearly exploded Google Docs with 120 simultaneous people playing presentation slide & poster design games. After 5 years, still my favorite group! #ScienceUX #betterposter

We have an ugly 3D printed prototype! 🎉 Video: youtu.be/7RgjXVU8XGU Big milestone in our quest to create an #OpenHardware people counter to measure & improve information foraging in scientific poster sessions. Prettier device next. All code on GitHub. #betterposter

@alfcnz your #BetterPoster insights are missed @iclr_conf #ICLR2025! I actually designed my poster with your visualizations in mind🫡, would've loved your take. @mikemorrison, keen for your thoughts too! 🤩 Had a blast presenting, huge thanks to everyone who dropped by!

So cool! @mikemorrison at it again! Can't wait for this to come to social science journals in like 50 years.

If we want more reproducible science, then we have to make science easier to reproduce. Here is an early demo of a step towards that: Scalable, one-click access to re-run the LIVE code & data behind the study. youtu.be/7AXxZ0a1ws0 #SciPub #ScienceUX

@mikemorrison Would @MystMarkdown or @curvenote be overkill for a personal scicomm blog? I've always wanted to build something similar to painscience.com and they seem to tick all the boxes. I'm assuming the Curvenote blog is using Curvenote?

APCs costing science $Billions. Would love to be able to track average APC cost, so we can see *hopefully* progress in reducing that number through efficiency. This fantastic study curated an APC dataset, but notes it may take regulation to force full, open transparency by…

Another thing I love about being able to self-publish my own research with Curvenote Journals is that I don't have to complain about journal policies anymore — I can just make my own!

In 2018, @blkahn said that the warming stripes graphic 'belongs in a damn museum', even suggesting that it was 'fit for the Museum of Modern Art' (see gizmodo.com/this-climate-v…). Well... Later this month, they will appear at the Museum of Modern Art: press.moma.org/exhibition/pir…
