Abstracts
must be submitted for all presentations:
invited talks, contributed papers, and
posters. There will be 270 available openings for posters, 6 openings for symposia presentations, and 36 openings for contributed talks. Please register early as availability is limited.
Those who wish to present posters at the
IBS meeting should submit an abstract (you
must be a member of IBS and be registered
for the meeting to submit an abstract).
Abstracts for Posters will be accepted
on a 'first come first
served' basis.
In addition, IBS is pleased to announce
that we will expand the concurrent sessions of contributed
papers, first introduced as a half-day at Merida 2009, to a full day with 6 sessions (on the biogeography of islands, climate change, conservation, palaeoecology, marine environments, and other hot topics). If you are interested in having
your poster abstract considered for the
contributed paper sessions please indicate
this in the appropriate box on the abstract
submission form. The program will accommodate
only 36 slots for contributed papers (plus two contributed talks in each of three of the symposia) so
a committee has been set up to select the
abstracts to be included in the contributed
paper sessions and they will give some
preference to early submissions so that
the program of contributed papers can be
made available on the web site as soon
as reasonably possible. All abstracts under
consideration for the contributed papers
sessions will automatically have a poster
slot reserved for them unless they indicate
otherwise.
Abstracts for symposia speakers, posters,
and contributed talks should be each of
no more than 250 words, inclusive of title,
name, affiliation, etc.
The Abstract deadline is 15 November 2010
for invited speakers, posters, and contributed
papers.
