BEFORE YOU START

  • Mac Users: if you have trouble submitting your abstract, try submitting from a PC. If you still have issues, please contact the secretariat.

  • Mozilla Users: the security policy in Mozilla often prevents pasting from your clipboard without using the menu commands. You can still cut and paste your abstract into the submission, but you may have to use the menu command rather than ‘control v’ shortcut.

  • Ensure your abstract text is less than 300 words as the system will not accept submissions over this limit. The word count does NOT include your title, authoring or cited references.

  • Have your abstract open on your own computer to enable you to cut and paste it into the submission system.

    Please, note: all abstracts will be shared amongst all conference participants only. If accepted for a talk, abstract titles will be on the website program for the public but not the body of the abstract itself.

    SUBMISSION STEPS

  1. Select the presentation type and category

  2. Provide some keywords to assist in categorisation of your abstract

  3. Enter the title of your abstract. Please type the title in sentence case (that is lowercase with only the first letter or the first word in capitals) and without any punctuation. A correctly formatted example follows: Title of my presentation for the conference

  4. Enter the name of all authors and their organisations and indicate the presenting author by ticking the relevant box. You will not be able to proceed with submission until a presenting author is selected.

  5. Type or cut and paste the text of your abstract/synopsis into the relevant field. Please ensure the abstract is no more than 300 words. (Does not include title, authoring or cited references)

  6. Preview your abstract, make any changes required and finalise your submission and return to your dashboard

  7. You will receive an email confirmation that your abstract has been successfully submitted. Please check your email junk or spam folders in case it has been captured there.

  8. Should you wish to make any changes to your abstract after you have submitted it, please log onto your online registration dashboard. Click on the “View Submission” then “Preview/edit abstract”.

    ****Please note you will only be able to make changes to your abstract until the submission deadline, after which any changes should be sent to Aileen Lozie**

REVIEW PROCESS

All abstracts will be reviewed once the deadline for abstract submissions has closed. Reviews are conducted by members of the program committee, which consists of members across all participating societies. Abstracts will be allocated to oral or poster presentations at this time. Please ensure you have selected the type of presentation you wish to be considered for at the time of submission.

ACCEPTANCE NOTIFICATION

Once the reviewing process has been completed the conference organisers will notify abstract submitters of their acceptance. Specific presentation instructions will be included in the notification. Notifications are expected to go out in late June, but is subject to deadline extensions.
