January 2024 - Abstract Submissions Open
Extended to May 31, 2024 - Abstract Submissions Close
June 2024 - Selected Abstracts Notified & Presenter Information due
September 2024 - Poster file due (for General Abstract Submissions only)
All authors of selected abstracts will be required to complete a disclosure of financial relationships form. This form will be provided to you via email; you will be required to complete it by the stated deadline. Failure to do so jeopardizes your participation and that of your fellow authors. A review of your disclosed financial relationships may determine that a peer review of your materials for potential conflict of interest is required. You will be contacted directly if this is applicable to you and will be required to submit information by the requested deadline.
There are 3 opportunities to submit an abstract:
GCOS Young Investigators Award Competition
General Abstract Submission (poster presentation - clinical or research)
Nursing Abstract (moderated poster presentation)
There is no fee to submit your abstract. Submission of an abstract constitutes a formal commitment by the author(s) to present the work in person in Minneapolis at GCOS 2024, if accepted. Work that has been previously presented is welcomed to be submitted/presented at GCOS.
To submit, you will be asked to create an account for Oxford Abstracts or login to an existing account.
