Oral Presentations, Parallel Workshops (deadline has passed) & Posters

The deadline for the submission of abstracts for oral presentations is Friday 8 June 

Delegate booking details will be available shortly. The flier for the meeting is attached.

How to propose an Oral Presentation:
We are seeking abstracts for presentations relevant to behavioural medicine. Presentations will be up to 10 minutes long with 5 minutes for questions and discussion. All abstracts will be peer-reviewed as part of the selection process. If you wish to propose a presentation, please email a Word Document outline containing:
* Contact details and a structured abstract of 250-300 words (stating authors and affiliations, background, objectives, methods, results and conclusions on Arial 11pt)
Powerpoint and OHP facilities are available. The deadline for submission of abstracts is Friday 8 June 2007. As we are investigating the possibility of publishing abstracts, preference will be given to abstracts which cite results (or for those where authors will be in a position to update abstracts with results by the time of the conference).
