The Conference Committee will review all submissions before selecting the presentations which will be included in the Conference program.

Once the reviewing has been completed the conference organisers will notify abstract presenters of their acceptance. Specific presentation instructions will be included in the notification.

Notifications will be sent out in August.

Acceptance into the program is conditional on having a valid registration to the conference.

If you have registered for a single-day pass, you can change your selected attendance day up to 14 days before the conference.

Please contact the Conference Secretariat with any enquiries you may have.
