ECR Abstract Submission

Your role as Session Organizers will be to develop the session by identifying and inviting the speakers, communicating with them and providing the details for the online program on the program management system. Session organizers usually also (co)moderate the session.

Each session will be held within a two-hour time frame and consist of five 24-minute slots (20 min talk + 4 min Q&A). It will be important to keep to the 24-minute synchronization so that attendees can move between rooms to allow participation in other parallel sessions.

Please note the following important ISER rules concerning the session planning and recruitment of speakers:

• Each session organizer is allowed to organize and moderate one session only. However, there are no limitations for co-moderating sessions.
• Each speaker is allowed to deliver one presentation only (poster or talk) as the presenting or first author. This is particularly important when planning session content and needs to be brought to the attention of invited speakers. We suggest that invited speakers are asked to acknowledge this when accepting the invitation to participate in a specific session.
• Although speakers are “invited” participants in the session, there is no support for travel, hotel, registration or any other meeting-related expenses. The participation of Session Organizers and speakers is strictly voluntary.
• Session Organizers are welcome to seek support from sponsors to defray the expenses of their session participants, but this activity must be coordinated with the ISER office.
