Concerned you might not have enough detail for an abstract before the submission deadline?
- Abstracts at this point are “holding slots” that reserve your spot in the desired session.
- The Program Planning Committee will require a title, full payment, and just enough abstract content to ensure your submissions are placed in proper sessions.
- Research details and more solid content can be added through November 12.
- Please note that in-person submissions cannot be transferred to virtual sessions.
Oral Presentations
Oral presentations are 15 minutes each.
Rapid oral presentations are also available. These oral presentations are 5 minutes long and can be presented alone or in conjunction with a poster session.
