Late-Breaking Abstracts

HOME　>　Late-Breaking Abstracts

It gives us great pleasure to announce that we have received many abstracts from researchers by February 13 deadline.
However, we assume that there are some researchers who are making advances in their research even after the deadline. We consider it to be of great importance to have discussions based on recent research achievements and thus make a call for Late-Breaking Abstracts (LBA).
Submit LBA and present your latest research developments in Niigata!

2. Considerations

  • Late-Breaking Abstracts are not included in the meeting program. They are available on NEURO2019 Meeting Planner (online abstract browsing system).
  • Presentation format: Poster presentation only. There will be a “Late-Breaking Abstracts Corner” in the poster room.
  • The first approx. 200 abstracts will be received for submission. We may close the submission period earlier than the above date when the number of LBA reaches the limit number.

 

3. Criteria

  • The presenting author (first author) must submit the abstract; co-authors cannot submit or present.
  • One person cannot submit multiple papers as a first author. Those who have already submitted their abstracts for symposia or regular presentations cannot submit LBA.
  • The first and presenting author must be a member of the Japan Neuroscience Society (JNS) or the Japanese Society for Neurochemistry (JSN). Nonmembers who wish to submit abstracts should join JNS or JSN first.
  • It may take up to one week to issue your membership number. It is advised to initiate your membership well before the deadline. Please bear in mind that your abstract may be withdrawn if you, as a presenting author, have not completed the membership process by the time the program is finalized.
  • Please also bear in mind that your abstract may be withdrawn if you, as a presenting author, have not completed payment of the annual membership fee.
  • If your membership is paused, please activate your membership prior to your abstract submission.

7. View / Modify Abstract

You can view or modify your abstract during Late-Breaking Abstract submission period.   Click “View / Modify / DeleteAbstract” button at the bottom of this page, then log in with your abstract number and password.

Neither modifications nor additions can be made to your submitted abstract once Late-Breaking Abstract submission period has been closed.

The abstract submission system and the registration system are two different systems. Modifications you make in one will not be reflected in the other. You must update the content of both pages separately when making modifications.

 

8. Notification of Acceptance

Once the program is finalized, applicants will receive notifications of acceptance / non-acceptance in the middle of June.
Due to this short notice, overseas LBA applicants should prepare necessary travel arrangements and documentations well ahead of time.
Information on presentation schedule, format and room will be included in the notifications of acceptance.
