Call for Abstracts

Submission Deadline: 11 February 2008, 11:59 pm EST

Abstract Submission is now closed.
Thank you to all who submitted!

Prenatal diagnosis and therapy professionals in all disciplines were encouraged to submit abstracts for presentation. Abstracts will be reviewed and selected for presentation based on importance and timeliness of topic, scientific rigor, appropriate analytic approach, meaningful findings, applicability to the conference topic and clarity of writing. Notice of acceptance will be made to the corresponding author in March 2008.

The best presentations from the meeting will be published in a special issue of the journal Prenatal Diagnosis (John Wiley & Sons). Authors of accepted abstracts should be prepared to submit a manuscript immediately following the meeting for consideration of inclusion in the meeting issue. All submitted papers will undergo peer review. In addition, ISPD offers an award for the best abstract presented by an author less than 40 years of age at the time of the conference (1 – 4 June 2008).
