Instructions for Preparing the Abstract

Please  familiarise yourself with the layout prior to submitting your abstract, as abstracts which are not submitted correctly will be automatically rejected. You may wish to print out a preliminary copy of the submission page to assist you in preparing your abstract. The web page contains full instructions for submission. When you have filled in the form, please double check all information carefully before pressing the Submit button. Mistakes which are present in the submitted form cannot be rectified afterwards.

Do NOT submit your abstract more than once. You will be notified by email of your abstract's receipt within seven days of submission. This will be the only notification you will receive prior to the decision of the Scientific Programme Committee. If your abstract is accepted by the scientific Programme Committee for presentation, you will be notified by post.

PLEASE NOTE: Presenting authors must register for the meeting and are NOT exempt from the registration fee (about £25)

Please pay attention to the following points:

Abstract Title - Capitalise the first letter of the title and the first letter of proper nouns only. Do not include a full-stop at the end of the title. The maximum title length is 200 characters (including spaces).

Authors & Institutions - The presenting author should come first. Use the indicated pull-down box to associate each author with a single institution, which must be entered in the table provided. Up to six institutions may be represented, using one line for each. No more than ten authors may be included.

Abstract Text - It is advisable to prepare the text of your abstract on a word processor in advance, then copy and paste the entire text into the text-box on the web page. The text should be continuous, without line breaks. Do not include double quotes ("). There is a strict automatic limit of 1500 characters (enough for about 250 words), and your abstract will be truncated if it exceeds this limit.
