=Making posters= At one point during the pre-workshop, I had addressed the issue of science communication. I wanted to know through what form of presenting the science would be most accessible to the community. The responses varied from 'brief', and 'just the main points', to the suggestion of not using jargon. In response to the last point, I had asked about visuals: whether it would be helpful to have some main scientific concepts like "DNA", which do not have an precise Inuktitut translation, visualized in a way that would be visible throughout the gathering. The participants of the pre-workshop agreed that this would be helpful, "To get people up to speed, so they can jump right into the work". Before the workshop we sat down with artist Danny Aaluk, interpretor Tuppittia Qitsualik, and biologists Marsha Branigan and Kimberley McCLintock to create drafts for the following posters.
