Submission policies

Copyright policy
Abstracts should not include libelous or defamatory content. Material presented in abstracts should not violate any copyright laws. If figures/graphics/images have been taken from sources not copyrighted by the author, it is the author’s sole responsibility to secure the rights from the copyright holder in writing to reproduce those figures/graphics/images for both worldwide print and web publication. All reproduction costs charged by the copyright holder must be borne by the author.

Resubmission policy
An abstract which has been previously published or presented at a national, regional or international meeting can be submitted provided that there are new methods, findings, updated information or other valid reasons for submitting.
If preliminary or partial data have been published or presented previously, the submitting author will be required to provide details of the publication or presentation. This information will be considered by ENDO 2022 Scientific Committee when making final decisions.
If the author neglects to provide these required details and justification, or if evidence of previous publication or presentation is found, the abstract will be rejected.

Plagiarism policy
The conference organizers regard plagiarism as serious professional misconduct. If plagiarism is identified, the abstract and any other abstracts submitted by the same author are rejected.

Review and selection process

Abstract review
All submitted abstracts will go through a blind peer-review process carried out by an international reviewing committee. The ENDO 2022 Scientific Committee uses abstract scores and rankings to develop the final congress program and select abstracts for oral or e-poster presentation at ENDO 2022.

Abstract/video presentation
A small number of highest-scoring abstracts are selected for presentation in oral presentation sessions; the majority of the abstracts will be displayed in the e-poster exhibition.
Submitted videos will be selected either for presentation during the Video Marathon session, oral presentation sessions, or as ePosters.
Submitters who do not wish to be considered for oral presentation have the option of requesting that their abstract be considered only for ePoster presentation.

Notification of acceptance or rejection to corresponding author
Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent to the submitting (corresponding) author. Please note that only the corresponding author will receive an email concerning the status and is responsible for informing all co-authors. Authors whose abstracts have been accepted will receive instructions for the presentation of their abstract/video.
If an author is invited to present and does not confirm their participation, the abstract/video may be withdrawn. Declined invitations will result in automatic withdrawal.

Common reasons for rejection:

Abstract poorly written
Clear objective and/or hypothesis missing
Linkage between different parts of the abstract not comprehensible
Summary of essential results inadequate and/or missing

Abstract withdrawal

An abstract can be withdrawn upon written request from the submitting author. Requests for withdrawal must be made by January 15, 2022. After this date, we cannot guarantee that a withdrawn abstract will be excluded from publication. Requests to withdraw an abstract must contain the submitting author’s name and abstract title.
