Total attendance at the meeting will be limited to approximately 180 participants. Registration will in the first instance be offered to those submitting abstracts, and places are limited to one abstract per presenting author (the person proposing to attend the conference).
Delegates will be chosen on the basis of the relevance and quality of submitted abstracts and the overall balance of the programme, and we will endeavour to include as wide a range of research institutions as possible. A small number of abstracts will be selected for oral presentations on the same criteria. Preference will be given to those likely to stimulate broad discussion. A proportion of places has been reserved for junior researchers at the postgraduate and postdoctoral levels.
Abstracts should be written with a broad, multi-disciplinary audience in mind, highlighting the general relevance of specific findings.
Abstracts will be submitted for inclusion in conference proceedings, which will be made available online, with the author’s permission.
Submitters will be required to provide the names and affiliations of all authors, contact details for the presenting author, name of the senior author and confirmation that all authors have approved the submission. Furthermore, a preference for oral or poster presentation can be indicated.
The text of the abstract should be entered in plain text in the space provided (maximum 250 words).
For reviewing purposes you will be asked to select a topic to which you think your presentation would be most relevant. See the Programme page for details of session topics.
Abstract submission is now closed.
Registration will be accepted from a limited number of participants who are not presenting at the meeting.

Velcro tabs will be provided on site to assist in mounting posters. When preparing your poster, please bear in mind the mutlidisciplinary nature of the meeting and diverse backgrounds of the delegates. Many will not be specialists in your area. In order that the maximum number of participants can appreciate the impact of your work it will thus be important to include some general background information, to define specialist terms and to explain methodological approaches, results and conclusions in generally accessible terms.
