Submit an abstract

The maximum length of an abstract is 450 words (excluding references). References will be limited to 50 words.

You can alter your abstract any time up to the submission deadline – after this date,
changes will not be possible.

It should be structured as follows: do not repeat the title, authors, or section headings, as they will be automatically included in your abstract.

- Introduction

- Methods

- Results

- Conclusions

- References

You can enter multiple abstracts.

They must be anonymous (no identifiable names or affiliations) both in the title and body of the abstract; otherwise, they will be automatically rejected.

If you are a student author and do not supply your supervisor’s name and contact details, your abstract will be automatically rejected.

Authors must seek the approval of all authors before submitting an abstract for consideration and supply all names and contact details. All authors will receive email confirmation of abstract submission.

Please be reminded that abstracts will no longer include graphical elements (figures or tables) and will move to plain text format.
