Please read the following instructions prior to submitting your abstract.

Before you start

Mac Users: if you have trouble submitting your abstract, try submitting from a PC. If you are still having issues, please contact the Conference Secretariat ASN Events.

Ensure your abstract text is less than 500 words as the system will not accept submissions over this limit. The word count does NOT include your title, authoring or cited references. Have your abstract open on your computer to enable you to cut and paste it into the submission system.

Submission Steps

1. Select the presentation type and category

2. Provide some keywords to assist in categorisation of your abstract

3. Enter the title of your abstract. Please type the title in sentence case (that is lowercase with only the first letter of the first word in capitals) and without any punctuation. A correctly formatted example follows: Title of my presentation for the conference

4. Enter the name of all authors and their organisations and indicate the presenting author by ticking the relevant box

5. Type or cut and paste the text of your abstract into the relevant field. Please ensure that abstract is no more than 500 words. (Does not include title, authoring or cited references)

6. Preview your abstract, make any changes required and finalise your submission and return to your dashboard

7. You will receive an email confirmation that your abstract has been successfully submitted. Please check your email junk file in case it has been captured there.

8. Should you wish to make any changes to your abstract after you have submitted it, please log onto your online registration dashboard. Click on the "View Submission" then "Preview/edit abstract".

**Please note you can only make changes to your abstract until the submission deadline, after which any changes should be sent to: Conference Secretariat ASN Events.

Important Note: It is a condition of having your Abstract accepted and included in the Conference Program that you are a registered and paid delegate.

The registration system encourages you to register before submitting your abstract, but it is not essential—you can submit an abstract without completing the registration process at this time.

Trouble Shooting

If you have any issues submitting your abstract, please contact ASN Events.

Committee Review

The Organising Committee will review all submissions before selecting the presentations which will be included in the conference program.

Acceptance Notification

Once the reviewing is complete, the conference organisers will notify abstract presenters of their acceptance. Specific presentation instructions will be included in the notification.

Web Publishing

A couple of weeks before the conference, the final program will be published to this web page along with hyperlink to the abstracts. If you do not wish to have your abstract published, please indicate this when you complete your submission.
