Abstract preparation

Rules for abstracts submision

• Abstracts should be unpublished work at the time of presentation.
• Abstracts submission is possible on-line through the website only. Abstracts submitted by email, fax or post will not be accepted.
• The on-line abstract submission is available from 20 October 2023 through 15 January 2024, 11:00 p.m. local time (CET) on the congress website.
• Abstract length is limited to 350 words (tables and graphics included).
• The submitting author creates a personal account with email address and password and can submit, edit or delete abstracts until the submission deadline. At no time the Organizing Secretariat Staff can make any changes to abstracts.
• An individual may be first author (i.e. presenting author) of only one abstract.

The presenting author’s name must be the first name on the author’s list. It is permitted to be a co-author of an unlimited number of abstracts. Presenting authors (first authors) are expected to attend the congress and present their poster. Authors who are unable to attend and give the presentation as scheduled, must notify the Organizing Secretariat OIC and withdraw their abstract at abstractEGS@oic.it

• All accepted abstracts will be assigned to poster and some of them will be selected for rapid fire presentation at the discretion of the EGS Scientific Committee.

Once programmed, abstract presentation times and locations cannot be changed.

• The Scientific Committee reserves the right to reject abstracts.
• All abstracts will be reviewed by the Scientific Committee. The reviewing process is strictly confidential and all reviewers have agreed to the following: “I understand the confidential nature of the abstracts, and I will not discuss their contents with any individual, nor will I make copies of abstracts for my own or others’ use. In addition, I will not review any abstracts where conflict of interest may be perceived, i.e., work on which I have authored or co-authored or work completed in laboratories where I work.”
