For general session participation, an individual author’s name may appear on a maximum of two submitted abstracts, and no one individual can be corresponding author on more than one abstract.
Authors will be asked to assign their abstracts to one of the following six broad themes, even if the abstract could conceivably fit within multiple themes.
An abstract must be submitted via the online submission system. Faxed or emailed proposal will not be considered.
It is the responsibility of the authors to ensure the content is free from typographical or grammatical errors.
