Call for Abstracts

ASGBI operates a paperless electronic abstract submission system through Oxford Abstracts. This system enables the surgical community to ‘copy and paste’ abstracts (including tables and specific scientific characters but not figures or diagrams) directly into the abstract template provided, providing quick and easy abstract submission.

Please note that the abstract submission template will be emailed to you by return when you register with Oxford Abstracts.

Deadline for Submission: Midnight on Wednesday 14th January 2009.

Topics for Abstract Submissions

Guidelines for the Submission of Abstracts

• Abstracts must consist of four paragraphs, entitled: Aims, Methods, Results, Conclusions
• Abstracts are to be submitted as text and tables only (ie/no figures, graphs or diagrams)
• The text must fit within the abstract template and use the Arial font in size 10
• As the abstract will be judged anonymously, the text must not reveal any institutional affiliation
• The category which best describes the subject of your work from the list above should be indicated
• If the abstract is to be considered for the Moynihan Prize (put as hyperlink to Moynihan Prize page) the relevant box should be checked
• The abstract should related to original, unpublished work and must not have been previously presented at any major meeting
  

ASGBI takes a serious view of Research Governance. Please ensure that the abstract has been seen and agreed by all of the named authors before submission. All correspondence regarding your submission will be sent to the submitting author. All authors have a responsibility to ensure that the data submitted is accurate, is not extrapolated and fairly represents the presentation to be given at the Association’s International Surgical Congress.
