CALL FOR ABSTRACTS: NEW FRONTIERS  - NOW CLOSED

The online abstract submission process is now open and you are invited to submit your work for presentation at the 2018 ANZSPM Conference. The closing date for submissions has been extended to Monday 7th May.

All abstracts are peer-reviewed and ranked on the basis of scientific merit. The Program Committee will use these rankings to develop the final program. Not all abstracts will necessarily be accepted for presentation.

At the time of submitting your abstract the data must not have already appeared in print (it is OK for data to have been accepted for publication). If the research presented was supported by a commercial organisation, a statement identifying this support may be requested.  If the research involved human subjects, it must have been approved by your institutional review board or Human Ethics Committee and conform to international standards of ethical practice. Animal research must have been approved by an appropriate Review Board and conform to the highest standards of human care. An author of any abstract selected for participation on the program must attend the meeting and pay the relevant registration fee.

We welcome presentations of interesting case studies and stories, research, the sharing of innovations in palliative medicine practice and we encourage first time presenters.

ABSTRACT DETAILS

Please make it clear if the paper is being submitted for consideration of an oral or poster presentation, or both. Those accepted for oral presentation do not need to generate a poster. If authors indicate "both" then if the abstract is not accepted as an oral presentation it may be accepted as a poster. 

The following guidelines outline the instructions for abstract submission: 
  • The title should be brief but adequate to clearly identify the nature of the abstract.     
  • The name and location(s) where the work was undertaken must also appear. The body of the abstract should be no more than 600 words. You are able to submit up to 1000 words which would include your references.

The abstract needs to be submitted as text using the following formatting:   
  • Heading in UPPERCASE  
  • Body of abstracts to be in single spacing  
  • If you have references, list them in the body of the text  

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS: CLOSED
