Late breaking abstracts
Submissions are open March 20 – April 24, 2023
We understand that some members of the ISPGR community may have missed the chance to submit during the first call for abstracts, due to the ongoing knock on effect of the pandemic. Therefore, for the 2023 Congress, there are no restrictions placed on ISPGR members submitting a late breaking abstract, and no statement supporting why the research qualifies for this category is required.
Late-Breaking abstract submissions will be accepted during the submission period beginning on March 20th and closing on April 24th.
As a reminder, in order to submit an abstract, you must be a member of ISPGR.
Platypus Session
Did you miss the deadline for submitting an abstract for an oral session? This year you get a second chance. The late breaking abstract deadline will feature an opportunity to have your poster considered for a special “Platypus” oral session.
Much like the Mother Nature’s creation, the platypus, your scientific creation may not fit nicely into an ecological niche, but still it is unique, innovative, and has the gumption to survive despite the unforgiving process of natural selection, i.e. single-blind review.
Whether you hope to give a poster or be considered for an oral talk*, submit before the late-breaking deadline.
*Platypus oral session will be in-person talks only, however, posters can present virtually or in-person.
