The line spacing should be single. Any references provided in the abstract should be properly referenced at the end of the abstract in 9 pt times font. The page limit of 1 page per abstract will be adhered to and so contributors are encouraged to carefully edit their abstracts to make sure that they fit into the required space. Once the abstract has been submitted, it will be assessed by the scientific committee and a confirmation of acceptance of the abstract will be sent to contributors.

Final acceptance of abstracts will only take place once the conference registration fees have been paid.
