  • Do not use all upper-case letters when entering your abstract.
  • The abstract's title or authors' names/institutions must not be inserted in the 'Content' field below.
  • No graphs, tables, photographs, or slide presentations are accepted.
  • Abstracts will be published as one paragraph, so do not break your abstract into multiple paragraphs. If you wish to use headings within your abstract such as Introduction, Methods, Results, etc., they should be added at the beginning of a sentence within the paragraph and a colon (:) should be inserted after each heading. Example:

    Introduction: xxxx xxxx xxxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxx. Methods: xxxx xxx xxxx xxx xxx xxx xxxx. Results: xxxxx xxxx xxxx xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx....

A confirmation e-mail with your abstract number will be sent to the e-mail address you entered on the first page of the abstract submission process, once you have clicked on "Finish" at the end of the process. Please contact the Conference Secretariat at congress@sicot.org if you did not receive a confirmation.

The material submitted must not have been published or presented at any national or international meeting before this one.

Submission of an abstract implies that the presenting author will register for and attend the Conference in Dubai to present the abstract either as an oral presentation or as a poster if it is accepted.

The SICOT Conference Scientific Advisory Committee (CSAC) reserves the right to change the topic and the form of presentation (oral/e-poster) of the abstract or to reject it.
