The EMSOS Scientific Committee invites all participants wishing to contribute to the scientific program to submit abstracts for presentation. This is an opportunity to share your research with international colleagues – we welcome abstracts whether the work is empirical or theoretical in nature.
Abstracts will be graded by several reviewers on the following criteria: clinical or basic science significance, methodology and as an overall submission.
Acceptance will be based on content, available space and overall programme balance. The committee is not obligated to provide feedback to abstract authors regarding final decisions.

NOTE: Every presenting author MUST register and pay the registration fee to be included in the final programme.
The deadline for submission of abstracts is December 10th 2024
The deadline for reviewers’ evaluation is January 15th 2025

Introduction and aims: A brief statement of purpose of the study and the hypothesis to be tested.
Material and Methods: Summarize the predictors and outcomes analyzed, as well as the methods used. For abstracts reporting clinical research, a sentence or phrase presenting the most important selection criteria for subjects should be included.
Results: Provide a summary of the results including quantitative data, presented in sufficient detail with statistical analysis when possible to support the conclusions.
Conclusions: Summarize the impact and significance of the findings. It is not sufficient to state, “The results will be discussed,” or “other data will be presented,” etc.

AUTHORS RESPONSABILITIES
The content and accuracy of abstracts is the responsibility of authors. EMSOS reserves the right to reject abstracts that are not written in English, are out of the scope of the EMSOS Conference, do not meet basic standards of scientific quality, or do not adhere to conventional standards of civil discourse and common decency.
The submission of an abstract carries with it the obligation that it is actually presented (either orally or in poster form) at the meeting by the author or, at least, by one of the co-authors. If this is not possible, do not submit an abstract. Should an author not attend to present an accepted abstract, such contributions will be marked as ‘no-show’.
Permissions: By submitting an abstract, authors grant EMSOS a non-exclusive right to publish, reproduce, distribute, display and store the abstract worldwide in all forms (including on the Society’s website), formats and media now known or as developed in the future, including print, electronic and digital forms. Authors will retain copyright of the abstract, in addition to the moral rights to which they are entitled to as author of the abstract. By submission, authors give EMSOS permission to film or photograph their presentation at the Conference, which may be used on the EMSOS website and on other relevant and related platforms and media channels.
The official language of the conference is English. Simultaneous interpretation is not provided. It is therefore expected that, if selected for oral presentation, authors are able to present their research fluently in the English language.

IMPORTANT:
Maximum number of characters for each field: 500 characters
Total words for the entire abstract: 300 words
