Guidelines for Abstract Submission

Abstract Deadline has passed.

In recent years CIAP has received more abstracts than we have room to display. All abstracts will now be peer-reviewed by Steering Committee members according to the following criteria:

1. Contribution to the field (e.g., enhances understanding of basic mechanisms, factors that affect patient performance with a cochlear implant, new approaches or methods)
2. Quality of research (e.g., design, rigor, insightfulness)
3. Subject matter: complementary to the program/important area not addressed by the program/provocative idea to present.

Accepted abstracts will be included in the Conference Program. Abstracts must be no longer than one page (when printed in Arial 12 point type with one-inch margins.) The abstract submission page has fields to accept the following information:

• Title of Abstract
• Name and affiliation for each author
• Body text of the abstract. Leave a blank line between paragraphs. If appropriate, include acknowledgment of funding source(s)

All accepted abstracts will be included in the Conference Program booklet. The first author will be sent information on the status of their abstracts by May 1, 2013.

Authors from outside the US should leave the “State” selection blank.

If there are special characters in your abstract (mathematical symbols or Greek letters), please e-mail a WORD or pdf version of the complete abstract to ImplantableAuditoryProstheses@gmail.com
