Abstract Submission

Log in to your MyEAN user account. Make sure all your contact information is up to date to ensure that you receive relevant notifications. Click on the tab "Abstracts" in the navigation bar. Begin submission by clicking the blue button "Submit Abstract".

Complete 6 steps to submit your abstract:

  1. Select event "Congress 2022"
  2. Fill in all mandatory sections of your abstract text
  3. Add maximum of 3 images, graphs, or tables if needed. Add captions and assign each to the relevant section.
  4. Add authors. Select the presenting author, bearing in mind that one presenting author can have a maximum of 3 speaking roles at the congress. Enter the email address of the presenting author. Double check the author block that all authors and their affiliations are fully correct.
  5. Confirm. Only abstracts whose presenting authors are active EAN Resident and Research Members qualify for bursary and tournament participation.
  6. Submit your abstract. Alternatively, save your abstract as a draft to edit and submit at a later point.

All abstracts must be submitted and presented in English (United Kingdom). Use UK spelling and proofread your abstract.

No, abstracts must contain new and original information, not published elsewhere prior to 25 June 2022.

A presenter can present a maximum of 3 abstracts at the congress. This cross check is only possible if the presenting author has an active MyEAN User Account. To allow for the most efficient check, and to reduce any delay in communication, the submitter is responsible for ensuring that the indicated presenter is a MyEAN User Account holder. The submission system analyses the presenting authors of all abstracts submitted, in review, or accepted. Select a different presenting author.

Submitted abstracts can no longer be edited. Until the submission deadline, you can withdraw the submitted abstract and submit a new abstract. When creating an abstract, you have the option to save it as a draft to edit and submit at a later point. Only submit an abstract if you are certain that the information entered is accurate and complete.

Your abstract text cannot exceed 250 words in total and 1500 characters per section.
Abstract titles may contain a maximum of 25 words and 120 characters.

Tables can only be inserted as graphic files (file type: PNG or JPG) in the third step of the abstract submission process. If you wish to add a table later, save your abstract as a draft at the end of the submission process and add images by clicking on the blue button "Edit Abstract" and proceed to the last step for submission.

You can upload up to 3 images. For each uploaded file, the caption and section fields are mandatory. The maximum size of all figures/tables is 10MB. The file format needs to be PNG or JPG. Images do not affect word count. Images cannot be used to add additional text to the abstract body.

Yes, check your email account for your abstract confirmation email, which includes abstract ID and further details. In all correspondence with the EAN Head Office, indicate the abstract ID to easily identify your submission.

Check that you have indeed submitted your abstract. Status should say "Submitted" and a submission time stamp is visible when you click on your abstract. Note that there may be a delay in receiving your abstract confirmation email depending on several factors. If you have not received your submission confirmation email within 24 hours, email abstracts(at)ean.org to confirm your abstract has in fact been submitted in the system. To reduce risk of error and to help identify your abstract, include all relevant information in your message (submitter’s email, abstract title, abstract ID).

At the final step of submission, you have the option to save the abstract as a "Draft". At any point prior to the submission deadline, you can edit and submit your abstract.

First check if your work is selected for oral, ePresentation, ePoster, or ePoster Virtual at the congress. Then you can begin preparing your presentation according to its presentation type. Presenting authors of all accepted abstracts are obliged to register for the congress. Once an abstract is accepted, the presenting author must register for the congress. Only in cases where no abstract co-authors are able to come to the congress may another presenter be indicated. For any such case, inform the EAN Congress Department at abstracts(at)ean.org as soon as possible. If a presenting author does not register for the congress or does not attend the session for which the abstract has been scheduled, a penalty may incur, prohibiting the author from presenting papers at future EAN Congresses.

The Programme Committee holds the final decision on the presentation type. If you do not want to present your work as a poster, please contact the EAN Congress Department at abstracts(at)ean.org immediately and withdraw your presentation.
