Submission Deadlines
The late-breaking abstract submission deadline is Wednesday, April 3, 2024, 11:59 p.m. ET. Abstracts submitted by April 3 will be considered for oral or poster presentation. Revisions to the abstract may be made by Wednesday, April 3, 2024, 11:59 p.m. ET, at which time it will be locked and sent for review.
Submission Guidelines and Instructions
Presenting authors must submit the abstract and must be prepared to present the abstract at FOCIS 2024 should it be accepted. Posters will not be allowed without an accompanying presenter.
Abstracts that have been or will be published before their presentation at the FOCIS meeting may not be submitted. Exception: If additional data/research is added to a previously published abstract, the abstract may be submitted.
All presenting authors must submit a completed disclosure form. If a disclosure form is not submitted by the presenting author by the submission deadline, the abstract may be withdrawn.
During abstract submission, presenting authors may indicate their preference for an oral or poster presentation format.
Graphic elements, such as charts, pictures, etc., should not be included in the abstract submission and will not be considered.
Please review your submission carefully. No revisions, including author revisions and/or new data, will be accepted after the deadline.
Abstract Review Process and Placement
After the submission deadline, completed abstracts will be blinded and peer-reviewed by three members of the Abstract Review Committee. The Abstract Review Committee has sole discretion regarding the placement of abstracts within the FOCIS 2024 program.
Submitted abstracts will be selected for either a short oral presentation, or a poster presentation, or they are rejected. Oral presentations are scheduled into the FOCIS 2024 program on Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday afternoon. Oral presentations are allotted a maximum of 15 minutes, with 10 minutes for the presentation and an additional 5 minutes allotted for questions and discussion.

FOCIS 2024 Registration
Late-breaking presenting authors must register for FOCIS 2024 by May 3, 2024, for the abstract to be included in the abstract supplement and scheduled into the program.
Register for FOCIS 2024 on the FOCIS website. If the abstract's presenting author does not receive an abstract status notification by the dates listed above, please contact the FOCIS Executive Office at info@focisnet.org.
