Abstract Submission Guidelines

There are two types of abstracts:

  1. Abstracts for Free Papers, Posters or Individual Presentations as part of a Symposium
  2. Summary Abstract for a Symposium
    • Prepared by: Symposium Convener
    • Purpose: To provide an overview of the Symposium
    • Maximum length: 500 words
    • See Abstract Format Number 2
    The Convener of each Symposium is responsible for submitting abstracts for each individual presenter. The complete set of abstracts, including summary abstract must reach the Conference Secretariat by January 15, 2010. Individual presenters should NOT send their abstracts directly to the Secretariat. Abstracts are not required for Discussants.

Publication of Abstracts

Abstracts will be published in the conference issue of ISG's official journal Gerontechnology (Spring 2010, Volume 9, No.2). In order to be eligible for publication, your abstract must be prepared as set out in the guidelines and template. Incomplete or incorrectly submitted abstracts will be returned to the author and must be resubmitted correctly by the deadline to be considered for presentation at the conference.

The presenting author must register and pay the registration fee.
