- Graphics and tables are not permitted.
- Please check the spelling and grammar carefully. The abstract will be reproduced from your online submission - any errors in spelling, grammar or scientific data will appear in print.
- Where possible please use the following subheadings in italic font:
- Objectives: a sentence describing the purpose of the study
- Methods: description of observations or experimental subjects
- Results: description of results in a logical sequence
- Conclusions: emphasis on important aspects of the study and conclusions drawn from them.
Travel Grants
A number of travel grants are offered to Masters and PhD students whose abstract submission for poster presentation is successful. The grants are limited to those students from countries with a less developed research infrastructure.
See the abstract submission guidelines PDF here for further details and how to apply.
