soe2007.scientific@congrex.com
should you have any questions regarding your
submission/notification.
|
Please read the instructions below carefully before you enter
the online submission form available above.
All abstracts will be considered for Rapid Fire, Oral or Poster
Presentation. Although the final decision will be made by the
Scientific Programme Committee, you may indicate on the abstract
form your preferred type of presentation. The Rapid Fire
sessions will consist of short oral presentations selected from abstracts
submitted as Free Paper and/or Poster. Each presentation
will consist of a 4-minute presentation followed by a 2-minute
discussion. Rigorous time keeping will be enforced.
By submitting an abstract the authors thereby guarantee that
the abstract submitted describes unpublished results and human
and experimental studies have been undertaken with the appropriate
ethics approval and official permission from the proper
authorities. A special criterion for finally accepting abstracts will
be their degree of innovation. In order to make their work as
efficient and the selection as objective as possible, the following
guidelines should be observed.
