For invited speakers or participants from regions affected by travel restrictions, including the United States, the organizers may offer remote presentation options (live or pre-recorded).
We will provide support with visas, official invitation letters, and required documentation as needed. Please contact the Congress Secretariat for more information: tuberculosis2026@conferences-pasteur.org.
Selection criteria
All submitted abstracts will be reviewed and selected by the Scientific Committee. Selection will be based on the scientific quality, novelty, and relevance of the research to the thematic sessions of the workshop. Abstracts may be chosen for oral presentations, poster presentations, or flash talks, while low-quality or off-topic abstracts will be rejected. The committee will also aim to ensure a balanced and diverse group of participants across career stages, gender, geographic regions, and scientific disciplines, with special attention to early-career researchers.
Abstract guidelines
All abstracts must be submitted online in English. The title should not exceed 20 words, and the abstract body should be no more than 350 words (excluding title, authors, and affiliations). Only accepted abstracts from participants with completed registration and payment will be included in the digital abstract book.
Poster specifications
Posters must be in portrait orientation and must not exceed 1 meter (3.3 feet) in height and 0.7 meter (2.4 feet) in width. Posters should be prepared in high-resolution format for clear printing, and it is recommended to use a minimum font size of 24 pt for main text to ensure readability. Magnets will be provided on site for mounting.
