Abstract Guidelines

Abstract Submissions for the 2007 Meeting

Continue to On-Line Abstract Submission

Abstract and Poster Information

All abstracts will be published in the SPS Abstract & Program Book. In addition, authors are invited to have their abstracts published in the Journal of Pharmacological & Toxicological Methods. Abstracts should describe the aims of the work, methods, and the key experimental findings in a clear and succinct manner. Brevity is important to adhere with the publication guidelines of JPTM. All abstracts will be reviewed for scientific content and the Abstract Committee reserves the right to refuse abstracts that do not adhere to publication guidelines. It is hoped that abstracts and posters will be the first presentations of the study represented.

Junior Investigator Poster Contest

Junior Investigators are encouraged to participate in the Junior Investigator Poster Competition. Cash prizes will be awarded to the most outstanding posters based on both the poster itself as well as discussions with the Abstract Committee Poster Competition judges. If you are interested in participating in the Junior Investigator Poster Competition, please check the appropriate selection on the on-line submission form. Junior Investigator presenter must be present during judging. Please see Poster guidelines for allowable size of poster.

NOTE—To participate in the Junior Investigator Travel Award AND the Poster Contest, two separate abstracts are needed: a 500 word abstract submitted by e-mail (see Junior Investigator and/or Student Award) AND a 250 word abstract submitted on-line, details below.
