Submit an Abstract
The online abstract submitter will close April 11 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time.
Paper/poster abstract status (accepted or rejected) will be sent by email to Submitting Authors by the middle of July. Final schedules, with date and time for scheduled in-person presentations, will be emailed to the Presenting Author by the end of July.
Scientific research submitted as a paper/poster benefits from these opportunities:
- Expanded original paper presentations with panel discussions that include the opportunity for questions and answers with the authors.
- Moderated Poster Theater and small-group Poster Discussions allowing for an interactive presentation of your work.
- Easy online access to all accepted posters during the meeting through the Mobile Meeting Guide, and after the meeting through the online Meeting Archive.
Note: All posters are electronic. There are no physical posters. Additionally, some posters will be scheduled as a live presentation session.
