Abstract Submission and Travel Awards
A majority of the oral presentations and all posters will be selected from the submitted abstracts by the organizing committee. The abstract submission deadline is Tuesday, October 3, 2006. Abstracts should be limited to one page. They should include a title, all authors (presenting author should be clearly underlined), department affiliation, university, city, state/province, country, zip code/postal code, and email address, along with sufficient experimental detail to assess the relevance of the work. Please acknowledge appropriate funding sources for your research. In addition to sending us your abstract, please check the “I will be submitting an abstract” button when you register for the workshop. There is no fee for registration. Students and postdoctoral researchers/fellows are encouraged to attend this workshop. A limited number of travel awards are available for students, postdoctoral researchers/fellows, and junior faculty. In addition, several abstracts will be chosen from those submitted for short “hot- topic presentations.” Presenters for short talks and travel awards recipients will be chosen from among the submitted abstracts on the basis of the quality and significance of the research. If you would like to apply for a travel award, please include a short cover letter containing a brief biographical sketch along with your abstract, a curriculum vitae, and indicate whether you would prefer to present your work as a talk, poster, or both. Abstracts can be submitted via email to: Karen Ellis The Scientific Consulting Group, Inc. 656 Quince Orchard Road, Suite 210 Gaithersburg, MD 20878 Phone: 301-670-4990 Fax: 301-670-3815 Email: kellis@scgcorp.com |
