1. MARCH 31 is the deadline to have your abstract considered for a talk.
2. The 28 sessions accepting about 60 total abstracts are described at this URL and listed below.
http://icar2020.arabidopsisresearch.org/session-descriptions.html
3. Review the list of sessions choosing abstracts and read session descriptions to determine where your research and practice fits within the program.
-
1. Then click “Submit Your Abstract” from the conference web page.
2. Or access the submission database at:
https://www.softconf.com/j/icar2020/
4. Note that all submitted abstracts will be accepted for a poster presentation if not selected for a talk. However, all presenting authors must be registered and paid in full by May 4 (for speakers) or by May 18 (posters only) or your abstract will be withdrawn. Speakers may also present their work in a poster in addition to their talk.
5. Announcing STUDENT POSTER SPOTLIGHT!
-
1. Each poster will be assigned to be presented in one of two official poster session (either Tuesday or Wednesday evening).
2. On Thursday we are holding our FIRST STUDENT POSTER SPOTLIGHT where we invite all students (undergraduate through graduate level) to bring their poster back for a a repeat performance. This allows students to gain additional experience discussing their work and also have the opportunity to engage with colleagues that may have input, insights, feedback, etc., and may also be open to collaborations! Spread the word about this wonderful student opportunity!
