Submission Guidelines

When composing your abstract submission for Oral or Poster Presentation, please adhere to the following:
    • The maximum word count is 250 words (excluding title, authors and affiliations).
    • Include bolded structured headings as follows: Aims, Methods, Results and Conclusions. Some submissions may not lend themselves to this structure. Leave a blank line space in between each section. Subheadings should be followed by the text on the same line.
    • Please do not include figures, tables or references within the submission.
    • Abbreviations must only be used if defined immediately after the full word or if the phrase is used for the first time.
    • Please ensure that the title or abstract text does not contain identifiable author information as the abstract will be blind reviewed by the FFN Scientific Committee
    • 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.
