IUPAC-2017 invites all interested individuals to submit abstracts for oral sessions & poster sessions or for Invited Lecture where we can share the most up-to-date research works and discuss current issues of mutual interest.

Guideline

• All abstracts must be submitted only via the congress website.
• Abstracts can be presented orally or as poster.
• All abstracts must be sent in pdf format (template below). The author should attach the abstract file in the system (maximum 4MB).
• It is the author’s responsibility to review the submissions and correct them. Please proofread your abstract before completing your submission.
• The system will only allow one abstract per registered author.
• The main author / presenter must register until March 31st, 2017.
• All abstracts must be submitted in English.
• After the submission, the confirmation letter will be automatically sent to the responsible author by e-mail. Please make sure that personal data registered are correct.
• The acceptance of abstracts will be notified to the responsible author by email.
• All abstracts must be related to the themes and subthemes proposed by IUPAC 2017.
• After submission, the abstract cannot be changed.
