Italian term or phrase: Pubblicazioni e poster
I'm translating a geologist's c.v. "Pubblicazioni e poster" is a new entry and I'm afraid "Publications and posters" would be too literal! here the full context:
"Pubblicazioni e poster"
1. Lazzari S., Riviello A., (1993) - "La cartografia tematica della pericolosità indotta da frane." Atti XXIX Convegno Nazionale Associazione Italiana Cartografia, Pavia, Boll. AI.C. n. 89, II parte, Bologna. (Pubblicazione n. 973 Catalogo CNR-GNDCI).

English translation:publications and academic posters
Explanation:
The term posters is used regularly by academics. They display their research on a poster that is displayed usually at a conference. It is prestigious to be asked to display your poster at a conference.

You could refer to the posters as "academic posters" or simply "posters" since those who are considering his cv know that it is academic in nature.

neutral  Tom in London: yes - I'd avoid "academic poster". It sounds strange. Just "poster" would be enough. Though I'm still puzzled.

Publications and poster presentations


Explanation:
If there are oral presentations, 'conference presentations' would then be more appropriate, with each entry specified as a poster or oral presentation.
