It’s a great opportunity to make new connections online through VSS before the conference begins. Those who want to continue the conversations can later arrange to meet up in person at the conference. […]

Abstract Numbering System

Each abstract is assigned a unique 4 or 5-digit number based on when and where it is being presented. Talk presentations are a 4-digit number and Poster presentations are a 5-digit number (the last two digits of a poster are the board number). The format of the abstract numbering is DT.RN, where D is the […]
