Call for Abstracts

The symposium organizers request the submission of presentation abstracts to the scientific committee for review.  Both oral and poster presentations will be a part of the symposium.

Your abstract should be less than 500 words in length, and may contain one or two simple figures or graphs. It should fit on a single page when formatted as indicated below. Please indicate your preference for an oral or poster presentation. Be sure to include the corresponding author's full mail and email addresses.

You may submit your abstract either by email, or by regular mail (paper submission). Authors are encouraged to describe actual results of experiments, simulations, or derivations performed, as well as their significance.

The deadline for suggested oral contributions has passed..

The deadline for posters has passed..

Proposals for "late news" posters will be accepted until June 15.  These abstracts will not be included in the symposium book, but can be presented in a special session on the last day of the conference.  Please submit these late news abstracts as instructed for the regular abstracts.

Author notification of acceptance to the symposium program will be completed by May 15, 2007.

Authors accepted for publication in the Symposium abstract book will be expected to attend the conference to make their oral or poster presentation.

Poster Preparation: All poster presenters will also be given 2 minutes to give a short oral presentation of their poster at the oral poster introduction section.  A 120 cm by 120 cm area will be provided for attaching posters at the symposium, thus posters should be no more than 120 cm wide (4 ft), but they can be taller (they will hang off of the board).
