Guidelines for Abstract Preparation

Presentations will be either oral or poster. You must indicate your preference on the abstract submission form.

For multi-authored abstracts, the presenting author’s name should be in ALL CAPS.

All oral presenters are encouraged to use Microsoft Powerpoint to create their presentations and to bring them to the conference on a flashdrive or CD. Please specify if you require any special audio-visual equipment beyond the laptop computer, projector, and screen that will be available.

Abstract Format

DO NOT DOUBLE SPACE. Abstracts must be no more than 250 words (excluding authors, title, and addresses). The abstract title should be in ALL CAPS. Please do not use chemical or mathematical formulae, or Greek characters in your title. Use only English-language (ASCII) equivalents in your title.
