12th Annual Pediatrics Research Retreat

Abstract Guidelines

We recommend that you prepare your abstract in a word processing application and then paste each component into the corresponding online section. Your abstract should not exceed 300 words. An abstract submission is considered a commitment to attend the retreat and present, if accepted.

Abstract decisions will be sent to the primary author in early February 2021. All abstracts will undergo a review process by the Research Retreat Committee reviewers.

We recommend abstract submissions include a trainee or Instructor as the first author. The trainee categories in Pediatrics include: undergraduate students, graduate/medical students, residents, fellows, and postdoctoral scholars.

Oral Presentations
Fifteen (15) trainees and Instructors will be selected to present an oral presentation as part of the retreat agenda. Oral presentations include a short 5-minute overview of the research, which will be pre-recorded and played live during the retreat. Presenters will join the retreat live on Zoom to answer questions from the audience.

Poster Presentations
Poster presenters are expected to be available to discuss their research with session attendees during the scheduled poster session time.

Oral and poster abstract submissions are due by 11:59pm on Friday, January 15, 2021.
