Interested in submitting a poster or concurrent session abstract for the AFHTO 2017 Conference but not sure how to proceed? Help is available!
Over the years, with feedback from our conference working groups and attendees, we’ve learned what makes an abstract stand out from the crowd. Below is a list of resources to help you, including our 2016 “What Attendees Really Want” webinar, which explains exactly how submissions are evaluated and guides you through the submission process. All are welcome. Please pass this along to your peers, colleagues and network including those from other healthcare sectors, non-profits, and the academic and research communities. The deadline to submit abstracts for concurrent sessions and posters is May 8, 2017 at 9:00 am (EST). Helpful links for building your abstract:
- “What Attendees Really Want” webinar video and slides (2016)
