Abstract Selection and Notification
The NPAA Conference Committee will meet to select abstracts and to finalize the conference program the third week of the month. For each podium abstract accepted, the Committee will assign the time and date of presentation on the conference schedule.
If your abstract is accepted for presentation, you will be notified by email on or around May 15, 2025, with details of your presentation date and time. This notice will be sent to the contact person for each abstract and to the presenting author of each podium session. If the abstract has more than one author, the contact person is asked to share the information with the other author(s). (See section on “Information after Abstracts Are Selected” below for more details about procedures following the selection process.)
Conference Registration
The podium presenter will receive one half-off complimentary registration for the conference (for one presenter only). If the primary author cannot attend the conference and has made arrangements for someone else to present, notification of a substitute presenter must be made by August 1, 2025.
