Abstracts must be submitted at the same time as the application and registration form. No exceptions.
The uploaded document should only include the body of the abstract. Do not include the title, author(s) and affiliation(s). You will enter this information separately.
The abstract format is as follows:

Once an abstract is submitted, it cannot be revised. Please be sure the information submitted is correct.
The application allows you to submit only one abstract. If you would like to submit an additional abstract, you should contact the organizer after you are notified of your acceptance.
If you must withdraw your abstract, please contact the Summer Research Conferences Office in writing so that we may notify the conference organizer. You may send this information by email ( Contact Information) or by fax to 301-634-7007.
