Accept/decline notifications will be sent in early December. Details on the ATLAS 2025 Conference and Proposal Submission Guidance can be found here.
What type of presentation do you intend to submit?
- Panel Session
A panel session consists of 4-6 presenters, including an optional discussant, or as few as three presenters with a discussant. Only one individual from the panel who is serving as the Panel Chair should submit the panel session abstract. The Panel Chair should also submit an abstract as an individual presenter, unless they are serving as the discussant.
Proposed panel sessions are strongly encouraged to have at least one but no more than two discussants. Discussants may also participate as panelists, but are not required to do so.
Each individual presenter must also prepare an abstract of 200 words or less. Time slots for panel sessions are 90-minutes in length and may be in-person or hybrid. For hybrid presentations, at least one presenter/participant must attend the session in-person.
- Roundtable Session
A roundtable session consists of 4-6 presenters, including an optional discussant, or as few as 3 presenters with a required discussant.
For this option, one or more of the proposed roundtable participants should compose a roundtable session abstract of 200 words or less posing a provocation or series of questions that will be discussed, followed by a list of proposed participants and their affiliation(s). Only one individual from the panel who is serving as the Session Chair should submit the panel session abstract.
Time slots for roundtable sessions are 90-minutes in length and may be in-person or hybrid. For hybrid presentations, at least one presenter/participant must attend the session in-person.
Note: roundtables with three participants must have a discussant.
- Poster Presentation
One or more poster sessions will take place throughout the conference. Poster presentations combine visuals and text, allowing presenters to present their research and speak casually with interested viewers. Abstracts of 200 words or less should be submitted for poster presentations. If your abstract is accepted, you will be provided a template to use for your poster. Completed posters should be sent in advance to be printed and mounted. The only modality for poster presentations is in-person.
