Abstract submission deadline reached

The abstract submission deadline was yesterday, and we are happy to report that we ended up with over 240 submissions for posters or contributed talks from the community, plus of course the invited speakers – a very healthy number and more than we expected. Thank you all for your interest in our symposium! Here’s the continental distribution of the abstracts, in case you’re curious:

The SOC will now get to work on evaluating the abstracts. The outcomes should be communicated to authors in mid-January.

Remember that the registration deadline is separate, and until March 1 2026 you can still use the registration form at https://app.oxfordabstracts.com/register/event/75831 regardless of whether you submitted an abstract.

Registration and abstract submission is now up!
