Instructions for Submitting Abstracts By Regular Mail (snail mail)

Please submit abstract on-line instead of regular mail if at all possible. If not possible, carefully follow these guidelines for regular mail submission.

• The Program Committee will accept abstracts for consideration for oral and poster presentations. Abstracts should be received by Monday January 7, 2008. Late submissions will be considered on an individual basis (contact the Program Chairman).

• The abstract submission format includes necessary information on the opposite side. Abstracts should be typed, double-space, on a single sheet (margins 1 inch all around).

• The abstract must include the title, authors, and the name of the authors’ institution. The name of the presenter (who should also be the first author) should be underlined. Please indicate with an asterisk presenters who are “in training”.

• ON THE REVERSE SIDE OF THE ORIGINAL please provide the name and full address of the corresponding author. Abstracts which do not include this information on the reverse side may not be accurately processed. Authors may also indicate whether they feel the abstract would be more appropriately presented as a poster, if accepted. However, final decisions on acceptability, and format of presentation, will be made by the Program Committee. Abstracts submitted to national meetings may be submitted to NEPS, but should be retyped according to this format.

• Abstracts submitted to national meetings may be submitted to NEPS, but must be retyped according to this format. Please do not submit reproductions of abstract forms from other meetings.

• Send the original of each abstract to:
