Oral and poster submission content:
Each abstract submission is anonymized and sent to three separate reviewers based on their field of expertise. The best of three abstracts in the various types of submissions are selected based on the top scores in each category eligible for awards. No abstracts below 42 points will be accepted. Oral and video presentations are assigned time slots based on their scores. Oral abstracts that are not assigned oral presentation time slots may be redirected to posters, if requested on their submission form. The same process is true of poster submissions, the top scores are assigned board allocation. Abstracts will be declined if they do not make the time slot/poster board availability limit based on their scores. The decision of the Abstract Program Committee is final.
The best of three abstracts are judged onsite during the ACSC. The winners in each type/category that are eligible for an award are determined by the highest scores from the onsite judging results.
NOTE: The total score is based on adding points from 3 reviewers’ scoring grids for a maximum of 60 points
(3 reviewers x 20 points per scoring grid = 60 points)
Design and Method (Max. 5 points) |
Results and Analysis (Max. 5 points) |
Relevance/Conclusions (Max. 5 points) |
Overall Impression (Max. 5 points) |
