Before saving the final version, please review all the fields in the form to verify that all the information included is correct. Caution!! according to the one person/one submission rule, it is not possible to upload different contributions from the same user (except for the ST-06 and ST.09 sessions). If you re-enter the system with the same user and re-edit any field, you will be overwriting (deleting) the data of the previously registered contribution.

Abstracts that are incomplete or received after the deadline will not be considered. Please be sure to submit the final-revised version of your contribution before 17th April 2023. 

Please be aware that participation in this call implies that the candidate agrees to transfer to the AEET the right to use the data contained in your application form, which will only be used for purposes related to the evaluation of proposals and for statistical purposes, participation, evaluation and communication of resolutions and, if your proposal is accepted, for the purposes derived from the dissemination of the program (scientific and activities) of the congress and publications derived from it, all without prejudice to the provisions of the legislation on intellectual property and protection of personal data. In this sense, the Organization understands that the authors who participate in this call for papers have received express consent for the transfer of their data from each of the authors who appear as co-signatories in their proposed contribution.

 Evaluation of Abstracts and acceptance notifications 

Submitted abstracts will be evaluated by the Scientific Committee of the meeting and may be selected and distributed among the scientific sessions programmed according to the respective themes. 

Although submitters of abstracts may indicate a preference for a particular session and a particular format of presentation, due to the limited amount of time and space available for oral sessions, authors may be asked to accommodate their talks in other session or to give a poster presentation instead of an oral presentation. Optionally, session organizers may also ask authors to make a short oral presentation (flash format) of 5 minutes (3 minutes presentation + 2 minutes for questions) instead of a standard oral presentation of 15 minutes.

Acceptation of contributions will be notified as of May 30, 2023, by e-mail, and will remain pending of confirmation until the organization can verify that the presenter is already registered at the meeting and that the corresponding payment has been confirmed. Registration is a separate process that will be open in June 2023.

Late cancellations and failures to give scheduled oral presentations are disruptive and leave gaps in the program. Before submitting an abstract, authors should be confident that they will attend the meeting and make the presentation. 

Information about acceptable portable media formats will be further submitted to the authors.

Thank you very much for participating.
