Abstract Submission

 
 

Abstract Submissions close on FRIDAY 16 AUGUST

 

WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW BEFORE I START MY SUBMISSION?

  • Abstracts can be submitted for Oral Presentations. Abstracts are limited to 300 words or less. This does not include your title.

  • You do not need to register to submit an abstract, however please note that you will require a vaild registration for your abstract to be included in the program.

The submission process is online from the same profile you create for registration. It will work with any contemporary browser and the system will let you know if there is a problem with your browser version.

Are you using one of the following browsers? INTERNET EXPLORER (ver 5.5 or newer), NETSCAPE (ver 7.4 or newer) or MOZILLA (ver 1.3 or newer). If not the screen will tell you if it detects you are using the wrong software and you would be better to change to a computer with one of the above browsers installed.

Is your abstract open and running on your own computer? – You need to be able to cut and paste it onto the web. (Note that keypad short cuts do not work with Mozilla, you need to use the Menu, Edit, Paste command to paste in text to your submission).

The benefits of this online system are many but include:

  • Allowing you to preview your abstract and make modifications to your satisfaction

  • Ensuring you know your lodgement is completed as you will receive an immediate email confirmation

  • Ensuring accurate indexing of all authors

  • Ensuring consistent presentation of all abstracts in the proceedings (overarching formatting is imposed).
