I – Instructions for submission of absctracts

To submit an abstract it is necessary that the author responsible for the submission of the abstract is enrolled in the event, with the payment for their registration confirmed. The other authors who register for the congress must not resend the already registered abstract.

The submission of the abstract is done exclusively via the Congress website.
