We are using a new abstract submission system this year!  Please make sure to review all abstract instructions prior to submitting. Abstracts must conform to the abstract template (.docx) and must be converted to PDF before uploading. Do not alter the format or your abstract will be rejected. Please view the list of conference topics to identify the appropriate track for your abstract.  Special sessions will be added mid-December to the list.
