Abstract guidelines
Abstracts must be submitted using the online abstract submission link. All abstracts must be submitted in English, have a maximum of 300 words and include aims and/or hypotheses, methods, results and implications. Abstracts will be selected based on relevance to the field, quality of work and presentation. Preference will be given to unpublished results. 20 talks (15 min slots) will be selected based on the submitted abstracts; please note that talks can only be given in person. We will ensure that there is a good cross-section of researchers from different career stages, as well as a fair gender balance, representation from minoritised communities, and applicants from less-represented countries and institutions.
