2022 ESVONC Congress guidelines

24/01/2022: Just a quick reminder that the deadline for scientific abstract submission for the ESVONC Congress 2022 in Syracuse is Jan 31st. The date is rapidly approaching, so please don't miss your opportunity to share your valuable research work with peers and colleagues. We do not plan to extend the submission deadline this year.

29/01/2022: IMPORTANT CHANGE: the EC has removed the age limit for the Resident award!

We shall accept submissions in the following categories:

clinical oncology,
basic science,
radiation oncology and imaging,
surgical oncology,
pathology.

Abstracts will be considered for both oral and poster presentation and we hope for a stimulating and diverse program.

A panel of reviewers will evaluate and score your abstract and you will be informed if you have been successful in your submission.

An abstract is a concise piece of scientific writing and we feel that it is important for us to provide some guidelines on its format. It is therefore strongly recommended that you read the guidelines and instructions that we have available on our website: https://www.esvonc.com/Congress/abstract-submission.

Our reviewers, many experienced presenters, have also made the following helpful suggestions:

When research work refers to veterinary patients or has used samples from domestic species, this should be clearly described, as this is first and foremost a veterinary oncology congress.
If English is not your first language then asking a native speaker to review your abstract before submission may be helpful.
Clearly state the hypothesis of your study.
The abstract is broken into sections and they may not be equally weighted. Your audience are particularly interested in the results of your study, so make sure this section receives emphasis. Also submit your abstract when you have results to discuss. If your work is still very much in progress, perhaps this year is too soon to present it.
Give your abstract an interesting and engaging title to catch the attention of the audience and make sure that it relates to the content of your work.
Finally, one of the most critical things is to keep your abstract to an appropriate length, not too short and not too long. The word limit is 250 words, remember not to exceed it!
All presented abstracts (oral and posters) will be published in the Journal of Veterinary Comparative Oncology (starting Congress 2021)

Good luck and we look forward to welcoming you to the beautiful island of Sicily in May 2022.

- !BE ON TIME! We suggest you start submitting online as soon as you have a draft : the online submission system allows editing until the deadline.

- Like last year we do not intend to postpone the submission deadline.

Review results communicated : ASAP!
