Abstract submission

Thank you all for submitting more than 200 abstracts! You can find further information here.

Abstract Submission is closed!
In each topic area, three abstracts will be selected for oral presentations, while all other accepted contributions will be presented as posters. Corresponding authors will be notified in at the end of January 2026. Further organizational details will be communicated directly to presenting authors.

What’s new in 2026?
For the first time, posters will be presented digitally in chaired sessions. Instead of crowded poster walls and poster tubes, you will experience focused discussions at large 55” touch screens. In addition, all posters will be accessible on your personal devices before and during the conference. This allows you to:

  • Browse posters at your own pace
  • Mark interesting contributions and contact authors directly
  • Join specific, interactive poster sessions
  • Continue the discussion in a quiet setting — with the poster always at your fingertips

To implement this new concept, the submission deadline has been moved forward. This ensures that all content can be reviewed, assigned, and prepared in time for the digital platform. Access to posters will be restricted to registered conference participants.

Questions?
If you have any questions about the submission process or the new poster concept, feel free to contact us — we’re happy to help!
