Abstract Submission Guidelines:
Prepare your abstract in word processing software such as MS Word, WordPerfect,
or a text editor such as MS Write. Do not use presentation software such
as PowerPoint. Each abstract should consist of four sub-headed paragraphs:
Objectives, Methods, Results, and Conclusions. Each abstract should, briefly
and concisely, describe the problem or issue being addressed, how the
study was performed, the salient results or findings, and what the authors
conclude from these results. Abstracts must be submitted in English, and
should be no more than 400 words (not including title and authors). Tables
are permitted if required, but each data table will count as 75 words
against the 400-word total.
The deadline for abstract submission is as outlined above. The results
of the peer review are also as outlined above. The submitting author will
be notified of the review results by email. Subsequent correspondence
will be with the presenting author(s). If you have not received a notice
by May 19, please check the status of your abstract by logging back into
the abstract site, and check your abstract details.
