Call for Papers

 

As a new invention for this meeting we are planning both a poster presentation session and a software demo session.

Abstracts for the poster presentation and/or the software demo should be submitted electronically by email not later than April 15, 2013 to the following email address:

symposia@beilstein-institut.de.

The receipt of the submission will be sent to the stated email address.

Abstracts must be written in English.

The abstracts will reviewed by the Scientific Committee and selected for both poster presentation and a short oral presentation.

Please note that poster abstracts can only be considered for scientific review if they are accompanied by the submission of the completed application form for the poster and/or software presentation.

The presenting authors will be notified if their abstracts are accepted end of April 2013.

Further details on the instructions for the presentation of posters can be found here.
