Notes on abstract submission

Notes on abstract submission

The abstracts will be prepared by you and submitted via an online system. Submission by post or e-mail is not possible.

1.   Please create your private account when registering as an author. You will then receive your password by e-mail. Please note that it can also happen that the mail reply with your private password arrives in your spam folder. If you have not received your password by e-mail after 1 hour, please write an e-mail to abstract@conventus.de.

2.   After receiving your password, please log in with your email and password. You can now enter your abstract under abstract submission. Please follow the steps indicated.
Please note that for security reasons you will automatically be logged out of the system after 1 hour. All unsaved data will then be lost. We therefore recommend writing the abstract beforehand and copying the abstract text into the text field.

3.   Please submit the abstract in full. It is not possible to save the abstract temporarily. Editing of the abstract is possible at any time until the submission deadline.

4.   After successful submission of your abstract you will receive a confirmation email. Please also check your spam folder here.

5.   You can now register at any time and submit further abstracts or modify existing abstracts until the deadline on 01 March 2024. Submitting or saving after the deadline is no longer possible!

6.   Please note that the scientific committee evaluates the abstracts and thus the preference between oral and poster chosen at the time of submission is not a guarantee.
