On improvement of scientific presentations: Using powerpoint

Abstract

PowerPoint presentations allow speakers a greater degree of flexibility for presenting their data. Although it is a newer format for presentations, the old rules regarding background and lettering colors on each slide, the number of words on the slide, and the protection of patient confidentiality remain [4]. In addition, authors are cautioned regarding the use of animation. Too much of a good thing can detract from the overall value of the talk.
