Guidelines

Abstracts must be written in English and should be submitted by the presenting author via the online system by November 10, 2025. Before submitting, authors must: (1) choose a presentation type (oral or poster), (2) select one conference theme, and (3) indicate whether they wish to be considered for student awards. Each participant may submit up to two abstracts in total, in any combination of oral and poster. Please note that our organizing committee will carefully review all submissions to create the best possible program. Final decisions on acceptance and presentation types will be made considering submission quality, program diversity, and venue constraints.

Abstracts should include the following information:

  • Abstract title (maximum 20 words)
  • Authors - Full names of all authors (First name, Middle name, Last name)
  • Affiliation - Institution name and country of all authors
  • Email address of the presenting author
  • Abstract body - Research aims, methods, results, and discussions (maximum 300 words)
  • Keywords (3-5 keywords)
