Submission guidelines

We welcome contributions describing research, practice, policy, innovation, case studies, lessons learned and emerging issues relevant to one or more conference themes.

Presentations and posters provide an opportunity to share work, stimulate discussion and highlight developments of interest to the wildlife disease modelling community.

Submissions should include a title, author details and an abstract of no more than 250 words.

Do not include images or diagrams in your abstract or apply special formatting to the text. Please do not include references in your abstract.

You may also supply some additional information that will be passed to reviewers to support your submission describing the significance, impact and context of the work you are submitting. Again, do not exceed 250 words. This text will not be made visible to other conference attendees.

Presentation formats

Presentation formats may include:

  • standard presentation (10 to 15 minutes)

The organising committee will develop the final programme and may adjust presentation formats and timings to achieve a balanced and engaging conference.

Submission process

Abstracts must be submitted using the online form. You will then receive a confirmation email.

Indicate your preferred presentation format. Note, the final decision rests with the Science Committee. Once submitted, the abstract may not be changed. 

You will be informed whether your abstract has been accepted and the approved presentation type within four weeks of the submission period closing.

Once your abstract has been accepted, you must register for the conference within four weeks or your abstract will be removed from the conference programme. You may register at any time prior to that.
