Portal Process
The portals for this meeting opened on Monday 7th September 2026 at 10am (UK time) and will remain open for at least 24 hours.
When you submit your abstract, you will see a success message on screen but you will not receive an email confirmation. We will contact all those who submit an abstract by email after the portals close, please check your spam / junk folder if it does not appear in your inbox.
In order to manage demand, we request a maximum of two talk submissions per sponsor / lab (no limit on poster submissions or non-member sponsorship). After 24 hours, we will check whether submission numbers exceed slots available and if so, will conduct a light touch review of submissions (to check eligibility) then select talks using a lottery system. Where possible, talks that are not selected in the lottery will be offered a poster.
If talk slots remain after 24 hours, the portal will remain open until full, and restrictions on the number of submissions per lab will be lifted.
The same work cannot be submitted as a talk and a poster, the submitter must choose which of these best suits the work and submit one or the other. You also cannot submit for more than one talk, or a talk and a poster, at the same meeting.
When the submissions portals close, we will assess all submissions via a light touch review (to check eligibility) before proceeding to the next stage, selecting abstracts using a lottery system.
Voluntary Registration Fee
