Abstracts will be accepted until Friday 11 July. This year’s process is slightly different than previous years, so please carefully review the abstract guidelines and instructions. Abstracts that do not follow the guidelines will be returned to the author, and will not be accepted. Also note that the committee is limiting the number of accepted abstracts to a maximum of 60 to ensure scientific rigor.

Special Student Competition: all student abstracts will be reviewed by an academic committee comprised of three recent Science in Practice award winners. Abstracts will be evaluated based on scientific merit and originality. The top four abstracts will be recognised at the conference.

If accepted for a poster presentation, you will be notified via email by Friday 15 August. The first author will present their work during the Opening Reception on Sunday 14 September at the Crowne Plaza St. Paul Riverfront Hotel.
