-Summarize your results as a poster to be shown during class (date will be posted on the main calendar of the course). This is a conference of your peers, and may also be attended by interested parties such as former and prospective PH575 students, and faculty. OSU Student Media Services, located in the Valley Library, print posters for free if it is a class assignment. A typical poster size is 3 feet wide, 3.5 - 4 feet tall. Text and diagrams should explain your calculations, and provide other information about your material. During the poster session, you'll stay with your poster for 50% of the time, and circulate around other posters for 50% of the time.+Summarize your results as a poster to be shown during class (date will be posted on the main calendar of the course).

 A. The Crystallographic Information File (CIF) is the standard for crystallographic data exchange prescribed by the International Union of Crystallography. It was described in a paper in Acta Cryst. (1991). A47, 655–685 by S. R. Hall, F. H. Allen and I. D. Brown. A.
