Abstract Submission Information

New Directions 2024 Logo

Abstracts are now being accepted with a PAID REGISTRATION.

NEW THIS YEAR: Communications Award

Registered abstract presenters who would like to showcase their work in a creative manner to a general audience can submit a separate graphical abstract related to their submitted regular abstract. Click here for more information on how to submit a graphical abstract! An award will be presented for the top video sponsored by the UF Wellstone Specialized Research Center.

Abstract Information:

We recommend cutting and pasting your abstract into our form. The form will recognize most specialized text but will not allow for sub or super script. Your abstract paragraph is limited to 300 words, but your title, authors, etc. are not included in this count.

Deadlines:

Abstracts wishing to be considered for oral presentation (including those for our trainee blitz sessions) will need to be submitting by March 22, 2024. All others, for poster presentation, must be submitted by May 19, 2024. A travel award is available to those trainees (pre and post-doctoral associates) who present in our data blitz sessions. You must select the box on the abstract submission form confirming you are eligible to be considered.

Additional Information:

All accepted abstracts will be included in our abstract book which will be distributed to all paid attendees but will otherwise not be published. The submitting author email will be included on each abstract for participants to contact each other directly.

The abstract number in the compiled list is your poster number. Posters will be arranged as abstracts are listed; by session then alphabetically by submitting authors last name (in bold). For those submitting two abstracts please be aware that if they are not in the same category they will not be placed side by side.

Poster Boards:

Additional poster session information will be available closer to date.
