Before you submit an abstract

Six checks that save a rejected or withdrawn abstract.

  • Confirm you're eligibleMany competitions require the first author to be a member, and some limit how many entries one person can submit.
  • Convert the deadlineDeadlines run on the organizer's clock, often Eastern, Pacific or UK time. Put the converted time in your calendar.
  • Check the prior-publication ruleMost meetings won't take work that was published or accepted for publication before their deadline. Read the encore rules before you submit the same work twice.
  • Get your mentor's eyes on it earlySome societies ask trainees to have a faculty mentor review the abstract first. Build in a week for edits.
  • Budget for the whole tripSubmission fees, registration and travel are usually separate, and accepted presenters are often expected to present in person.
  • Plan one project, several outputsA clinical vignette can become a poster, then a case report. Map the deadlines together so each step feeds the next.
