Review Criteria

    • The FFN Scientific Committee will judge all abstracts blind to author’s names and affiliations.
    • It is very important that numerical data and statistical analysis (as appropriate) are presented in the abstract. Statements such as “findings will be discussed” or “data will be presented” are not appropriate and will result in rejection of the abstract.
    • Multiple abstracts from the same overall study are welcome but they need to be sufficiently different to justify multiple presentations.
    • The highest-ranking abstracts will be selected for oral presentations (unless otherwise requested), the rest will be offered poster presentations unless judged not to be suitable for acceptance.
    • Abstracts will be judged on the following criteria:
        • Novelty
        • Scientific validity
        • General interest
        • Quality of abstract presentation
        • Relevance to the FFN vision and mission
