New this year! Late Breaking News Abstracts
Late-breaking abstract submissions are intended to allow for the timely presentation of high impact trials to AUGS-IUGA meeting attendees. It is expected that these abstract submissions are from studies for which no preliminary data was available at the time of the abstract submission deadline (February 3, 2014).
This meeting feature is not a mechanism to update previously submitted preliminary data or to provide an opportunity for previously rejected abstracts to be revised and resubmitted for consideration. The link to submit these abstracts through the OASIS system is now available. Please click here for more information. Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Maureen Hodgson at Maureen@iuga.org.
