Frequently Asked Questions

Q. For the poster session, am I required to create a new poster or can I reuse a poster from a previous conference?
A. Posters from previous conferences will be accepted.  Please note that you will be expected to speak to your poster for a non-expert audience.  The abstract you submit for your poster should reflect this non-expert focus and not be the abstract taken directly from your poster.

Q: For the presentation sessions, can I reuse a presentation from a previous conference?
A. There is no requirement that the research be original or that it not have been presented elsewhere.  Please note that you will be expected to present to a non-expert audience.

Q. If I am unavailable to present my work myself, can I still submit an abstract?
A. No.  You must be available during the dates of the conference in order to submit.

Q. Will I need to submit a full paper sometime after submitting my abstract?
A.  No. Only a 250 word abstract is required for this conference.
