Submit a Scientific Session Proposal for SOT 2017 in Baltimore

By David Rossé posted 04-14-2016 01:04 PM

  

We invite you to submit a Symposium, Workshop, Roundtable, Continuing Education, or other scientific proposal for the Society of Toxicology 2017 Annual Meeting in Baltimore, Maryland. Visit the website for complete information on the submission process, including links to recordings of two recent Scientific Program Committee (SPC)-hosted events: an Informational Session held in New Orleans on Wednesday, March 16, on session proposal preparation; and the webinar held on February 23, “Empowering the Endorsers.”    

Please keep in mind that the SPC and the Continuing Education Committee place great value on the comments provided by the endorsing groups—the Specialty Sections (SSs) and Special Interest Groups (SIGs) or other committees or task forces who will endorse and rank session proposals. For this reason, it is good to provide your draft proposals directly to the endorsing groups well in advance of the submission deadline to leave time for their review and feedback and any recommended revision prior to formal submission to SOT. This year’s session proposal deadline is Monday, May 2, at 12:00 Noon Eastern Time. A list of endorsing groups can be found here.

Check with your SS/SIGs directly for their early review deadline (usually several weeks before April 30), as these vary by endorsing group.  Click here for information on SOT SSs. Information on SIGs and Regional Chapters may be found in the “Members & Groups” option on the SOT website home page

We look forward to developing an exciting program from the proposals submitted for consideration for the 2017 SOT Annual Meeting!
