The abstract that you upload should be formatted like the SAMPLE shown here and include the abstract title, the author names and the presenting author's contact information. It is preferred that the abstract be in Microsoft Word Rich Text Format (.rtf) for PC. Do not send in MAC, (.pdf), (.dat), Notepad, Word Pad or other formats - it could cause a delay in considering your abstract.
