Selection criteria

Participants will be selected by the scientific programme committee, on the basis of the novelty, anticipated impact and scientific quality of the submitted abstracts.

Approximately 27 of the submitted abstracts will be selected for oral presentation, using the same selection criteria, and the remaining abstracts will be presented in poster format. Six poster presenters will in addition be given the opportunity to promote their work in a short (one-slide) ‘flash’ presentation in advance of the poster sessions.

Abstract guidelines

Abstracts should be of no more than 400 words, plus Title, Authors and Affiliations, and should be submitted through the web interface. The text should be comprehensible to the broad RNA turnover community; define all non-standard abbreviations at first use.

Poster specifications

Posters should be in portrait format and ideally A0 size, i.e. 841 mm (33.1 inches) wide x 1189 mm (46.8 inches) high, and in any case no more than 900 mm wide. Velcro will be used to attach posters to the boards.

Travel grants

A limited number of travel grants are available for participants. Applicants do not need to apply separately for travel grants for this event but should indicate on the registration form if they wish to be considered for a travel grant. Selection of awardees is handled directly by the organizer who will notify all eligible participants. More information is available at EMBO Travel Grants' page.
