Abstract Submission
INS Membership is not required for abstract submission. However, you must be logged in to submit an abstract. If you are brand new to INS and have never logged in, you may create a guest account. INS members will receive discounts on meeting registration and CE fees (if 2024 annual dues are paid at the time of registration).
Direct all abstract submission questions to abstracts@the-ins.org.
- The abstract submission deadline is September 8, 2023 at exactly 11:59 PM PDT. Any submissions still in draft status at that time will not be considered. No late submissions will be accepted.
- By submitting, authors commit to be available to present on the date and time they are assigned. Accepted abstracts may be scheduled at any time during the four-day meeting at the discretion of the Program Chair.
- There is no limitation on the number of submissions, but authors are asked to use discretion because submitting multiple abstracts is likely to create scheduling problems.
- The body of submitted abstracts may not exceed 500 words. Paper or Poster submissions must be organized under these headings: 1. Objective, 2. Participants and Methods, 3. Results, 4. Conclusions.
- All submissions must consist of original work. Abstracts submitted to other meetings or that have been previously published should not be submitted and will not be considered.
- All research, results, and conclusions must be final at the time of submission. Submissions that are promissory in nature will not be considered.
- Case reports may be submitted, but the abstract should clearly describe the uniqueness of the case and how it addresses critical knowledge gaps in the field.
- Submissions will be published exactly as received. Please proofread carefully before finalizing your submission. We are unable to accommodate any requests for corrections to typos or other entry errors made by the author during submission.
- All submissions will be peer reviewed by the Program Committee. The Program Committee Chairs will make the final decision on all submissions.
Note: This form automatically saves your progress as you type. You may safely exit the page and return later to finish if needed. However, please note that draft submissions will not be reviewed. You must submit your final abstract by the deadline.
