Selection criteria
Participant selection will be guided by the scientific quality of submitted abstracts, according to the expected scientific impact of the work on the conference and the ubiquitin/Ubl field. It is therefore requested that all participants submit an abstract (at the time of registration, they should also specify whether they wish to present a poster or short talk).
In addition, a proper balance of participants from different countries, genders, and career stages will be sought.
For participants who do not plan to present their work, selection will be on a first-come, first-serve basis.
The organizing committee will send a notification of your acceptance to the conference and/or selection for oral presentations within 2-3 weeks after the abstract submission deadline. This e-mail will also include payment details.
Abstract guidelines
Abstract MUST:
- be submitted in English
- include the title, authors list and affiliations
- be submitted with the agreement of all listed authors
- character limit: up to 250 words
A significant number of oral presentations will be selected by the Scientific Committee based on scientific quality, topic relevance and novelty of data presented.
