Each year, with assistance from several SOT groups including the Specialty Sections and Special Interest Groups that share in the responsibility for review of the Annual Meeting proposals, an impressive program is developed that provides attendees with an opportunity to learn about emerging fields, and gain access to cutting–edge research in the field of toxicology.
We hope that you will submit an abstract of your most recent research results for the upcoming Annual Meeting in Phoenix, Arizona. In addition to submitting an abstract, we’d like to invite you to consider volunteering to serve as chairperson for the poster and platform sessions that will be programmed.
Listed below are the categories in which authors can submit their abstracts. During the Scientific Program Committee’s review these broad session topics are broken down into sub-topics related to these categories. As per SOT policy, there will be two chairpersons for each platform session, and each poster session can have either one or two chairpersons. Chairpersons for platform sessions require that at least one chair be an SOT member.
If you are interested in volunteering to Chair a session, please review the Session Chairperson Guidelines. To volunteer to serve as an SOT session chairperson, please send David Rossé an email noting your areas of interest from the list of categories below. If selected, you will be sent an invitation in early December requesting your assistance. The deadline to submit an abstract is October 7, 2013 at 11:59 pm (Eastern Daylight Time). The cost to submit an abstract is $50.
