It is not acceptable to write: "results will be discussed". Tables, graphs and/or charts are not allowed. Also, avoid citing sources in your abstract. There are two reasons for this: the abstract should focus on your original research, not on the work of others. The abstract should be self-contained and fully understandable without reference to other sources.

Abstracts will be accepted until April 1, 2024.

Abstract categorization is divided into three areas (Biological/Preclinical, Psychosocial/Medical/Clinical, Other) with various research sub-categories under each area.

You must select one category from the drop down list. The primary purpose of the categories is to help us in assigning reviewers and to group abstracts at the meeting. It is not meant to be all inclusive of various research sub-categories.

During Registration and Abstract Submission, you will be asked if you want to be considered for a poster award.

Eligibility: Undergraduate students, postbaccalaureate students, medical students, intern/residents, graduate students, or post-doctoral associate/fellow are eligible to be considered for poster awards.

A review committee will select the top three abstract submissions (First place: $500; second place: $250; third place: $125). The abstract awardees will present their research during the poster session and will also present their research in an oral session during the satellite meeting (10 min presentation each).

Awardees will receive notification by April 22, 2024.
