This time could be adjusted depending on the number of final presentations.

The Scientific Committee will evaluate the oral communications and all authors will receive confirmation of acceptance or rejection. Abstract submissions are only being accepted electronically to www.iapesgw2019.com
Poster Presentation
Poster presentations provide a unique opportunity to give everyone a general idea of the sort of research that you are doing and an occasion to discuss in detail with a smaller number of people whose interests are close to your own. However, extreme care is needed in their preparation.
In order to assess the poster proposal, all authors must upload an abstract following this structure:
-
- Authors
- Affiliation
- Introduction
- Method
- Results
- Conclusion
- References
Max. 300 words (authors, affiliation and references not included)
The Scientific Committee will evaluate the oral communications and all authors will receive confirmation of acceptance or rejection. Abstract submissions are only being accepted electronically to www.iapesgw2019.com/call-for-abstracts/

Further Considerations
All accepted abstracts would be published in the IAPESGW Congress abstracts book with ISBN. Upon acceptance, a minimum of one author must deliver the presentation according to the scheduled day and time. If an author do not comply the requirements, the program chair or congress organizer reserves the right to remove the abstract and/or presentation from the conference schedule and/or conference book of abstracts.
We are eagerly looking forward to receive papers from and about all parts of the globe to make this a truly international world conference.
