Late Breaking Abstracts

The International Programme Committee invites you to submit your research for the late breaking abstract category. Accepted abstracts will be presented orally at the Copenhagen meeting during the Hot Topics session on Wednesday 28 May 2008. The submission website will open on Friday 15 February and close on Monday 3 March at midnight Central European Time.

The Committee realises that the most exciting and rapidly advancing research may not be ready at the time of the regular abstract submission deadline. The late breaking abstracts category permits later submissions of new experiments and clinical trials. Part of submission includes a justification for submission under this competitive category, as only a limited number of abstracts will be selected.

The category is not intended to offer a second deadline for standard abstract submissions. Abstracts should only be submitted as late-breaking abstracts if they meet the following criteria:

  • The work was not complete and could not have been submitted at the time of the regular abstract deadline on 7 December 2007
  • The abstract contains work that is original and has not been previously published nor has been submitted to, presented at, or is under consideration for any other scientific meeting
  • The work is novel, of major significance, evidence-based, and has scientific merit

As part of the submission, authors must explain why the work is novel and significant enough to be considered for the Hot Topics session and must certify that the results became available after the regular deadline of 7 December 2007.

A limited number of late breaking abstracts will be accepted. Late breaking abstracts will either be accepted as an oral presentation or they will be rejected. They will not be eligible for a poster session.

Late breaking abstracts will not be published in the abstracts supplement.

Authors will be notified of the Programme Committee's decision on a late-breaking abstract by 14 March 2008.
