Accepted abstracts will be published by Springer Nature and in the printed abstract book of the GfAS Annual Conference, unless otherwise specified.
Submission Guidelines
- Your abstract will be published exactly as submitted.

- Abstracts must be submitted in English.
- The abstract must be formatted as continuous text and structured into the following sections:
- Introduction, Patient(s) and Methods, Results, and Conclusion/Discussion.
- The text must not exceed 350 words (excluding the abstract title).
- Graphs, figures and tables are NOT permitted.
- You may choose whether you would prefer to present your paper as an oral presentation or as a poster. The final decision on the presentation format rests with the scientific committee. The number of oral presentations is limited.
- You will be notified by email as to whether your abstract has been accepted. Instructions regarding the presentation of posters and oral presentations will be sent to the authors of accepted papers.
- Please note that, as the presenting author, you must also register for the conference! Submitting an abstract does not constitute registration for the conference.
Encore Abstracts
Abstracts containing research findings that have previously been presented at another scientific conference may be submitted.
The GfAS strongly recommends revising and updating previously presented abstracts rather than resubmitting them unchanged, particularly to ensure that the content is appropriately tailored to the audience of the GfAS Annual Conference.
Abstracts that have already been published may be considered for presentation at the conference but will not be included in the Springer Nature publication or the printed abstract book.
Authors must disclose any previous presentation or publication of their work during the submission process.
The final decision on acceptance rests with the Scientific Committee.
