*In the event that more requests for platform presentations are received than time constraints allow, priority will be based on scope/extent of results as evidenced by the abstract, or balance of institutional representation, or faculty sponsors may be contacted so that more-senior graduate students can be accorded priority.  All remaining presentations will automatically be included in the poster session, and any affected authors will be contacted concerning any such proposed changes as quickly as possible.

On a page separate from the abstract, please indicate:

1. Your status (very important):  indicate graduate student, professional program student (i.e., Pharm.D. or M.D.), undergraduate student or postdoctoral fellow.
2. Presenting author name and institution (e.g.:  Smith, Joseph Q., University of Mississippi)
3. Title of your presentation
4. Presentation format request (platform or poster)
5. Reliable contact information for presenting author:  name, e-mail, telephone number(s)
6. Name of faculty sponsor
7. Reliable contact information for faculty sponsor:  name, e-mail, telephone number(s)

Abstract Page Content

Abstracts will be included as full pages in the conference proceedings booklet.  We suggest, however, that you aim for brevity—restricting to a maximum 250 words is strongly encouraged.  Please use a 12-point type, single-spaced, in Times New Roman font.  Including graphics  (structures, e.g.) is highly encouraged.  Please allow at least a 1.0" margin left, right, top, and bottom.  Ideally, aim to limit your content including any structures to the top two-thirds of the page.

For uniformity, please adopt the following format for author and title information:

You may, however, wish to provide full author given names rather than simply initials.  The name of the presenting author should be underlined, and the primary faculty adviser/sponsor should be indicated with an asterisk (*).
