Dear colleagues,
On behalf of my IMCC7 co-chairs and myself, I wanted to send a friendly reminder that abstracts for the 7th International Marine Conservation Congress are due THIS WEEK, by the end of the day April 11th.
Abstracts are due April 11, and will receive acceptance decisions by May 3rd. You may attend IMCC without presenting, but if you wish to be considered for a presentation, you must submit an abstract.
All organizers of symposia/workshops/focus groups/panels must register for IMCC7 by April 11th.
All presenting authors must register for IMCC7 before the early bird deadline of June 28th
To submit an abstract for consideration at IMCC7, please follow these steps:
1) Go to the link below and sign in to IMCC! Please note that IMCC employs a single sign-on application that is linked to your SCB credentials. All current and former members of SCB and most attendees at past IMCC and ICCB events have pre-existing credentials. If you don't have credentials, you can create a free account. Instructions are provided on the sign-on page.
https://www.xcdsystem.com/imcc/abstract/index.cfm?ID=1Heejyz
2) Click "new abstract/click here to start"
3) Enter your title, less than 200 word abstract (making sure to stress how your work is relevant to the science or practice of marine conservation,) and a one-sentence plain language summary.
4) Select your preferred presentation type (standard 12-minute conference talk, 3 minute speed talk, or poster,) and select a second choice. We will always try to give people their first choice when possible.
5) If (and only if) your talk has been invited as part of a closed symposium and the symposium organizer knows you are submitting an abstract, please indicate that and select the appropriate symposium. If you do not know what this means, it does not apply to you.
6) If your talk is *not* an invited part of a closed symposium, which will be true for most attendees, please select "no," and then please select which themed sessions or open symposia you think your talk should be placed in from the drop down menus. Please provide several options, we will try to place you in your first choice whenever possible.
7) Hit submit by April 11, and you will receive a decision by May 3rd. Each abstract will be independently reviewed by at least two people.
8) Be sure to register by the early registration deadline of June 28th (all presenting authors, or April 11 for organizers/leads of symposia/workshops/focus groups/panels) or else your submissions may not be included in the conference program.
Please contact im...@conbio.org with any questions or concerns.
