  ABSTRACT GUIDELINES

  • All abstract submissions must be entered on-line (see below).
  • Submitting an abstract implies that at least one author will register, attend the conference, and present the paper. Abstracts should describe original work and contain enough detail to clearly convey the results of the research. Abstracts should contain a brief statement of:
    1. the objectives of the investigation, experimental methods used, and the essential results
    2. a conclusion
    Authors may submit more than one abstract. Research previously published and presented can be submitted.
  • All submissions must be in correct, scientific English. Each abstract must fit entirely on one US letter size page (8 1/2 inches X 11 inches) and be 500 words or less. Only one figure (image, table or graph) may be included.
