Clarification of abstract submission to the SBN and ICN meetings

This year, the annual meeting of the Society for Behavioral Neuroendocrinology will precede and overlap with the International Conference on Neuroendocrinology (ICN).  This was done by design, and the two meetings will be fully integrated on the day of overlap.  The program for the SBN meeting is currently posted on the SBN meeting web site  SBN meeting web site.

 

Regarding abstracts:

People who register only for SBN must submit abstracts via the SBN Abstract system.  These abstracts will appear in the SBN program of abstracts which will be distributed at the SBN meeting. Note that SBN abstracts will not be published this year in Hormones and Behavior due to limitations imposed by the publisher.

 

Those who register for both the SBN and ICN meetings may, in addition, submit an abstract to present as part of the ICN meeting.  ICN abstracts will be published in a special issue of Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology.  Because of the publication schedule, ICN abstracts must be submitted by March 15th, using the Elsevier Editorial System. After going to the web site, you will need to establish an account (obtain a user name and password) for the Elsevier system, log in, and then submit you abstract. Note, this only applies to ICN abstracts.


NOTE: ONLY THOSE WHO HAVE REGISTERED FOR THE ICN MEETING MAY SUBMIT AN ICN ABSTRACT.  THE SAME ABSTRACT MAY NOT BE SUBMITTED SEPARATELY TO BOTH SBN AND ICN
.


Regarding abstract programming:

For people who register only for SBN, abstracts will be programmed for presentation at one of the three scheduled poster sessions.

 

For people who register for BOTH the SBN and ICN meetings, every effort will be made to program your abstracts for presentation on the overlap day.  This will provide maximum exposure to attendees of both meetings.  On that day, SBN and ICN abstracts will be integrated and programmed thematically.  In addition, those who have registered for the ICN meeting may leave their posters up for the duration of ICN.

 

Regarding registration:

All registration for the SBN and ICN meetings is being handled on-line.  The SBN meeting registration page  includes categories to register for SBN only or to register for BOTH the SBN and ICN meetings.  You can also purchase additional banquet tickets at this site.
