We encourage submission of abstracts to ASPET topic categories in all areas of pharmacology detailing your latest work.
By submitting your abstract, you will:
- Receive feedback on your work
- Be recognized for your recent scientific advances
- Be visible to spur those conversations about collaboration
- Have opportunities to win awards (for students and postdocs)
ASPET helps bring other scientists to you to discuss your work. Top scoring abstracts are designated as Program Committee Blue Ribbon Picks and are selected to give oral presentations at the ASPET Daily Datablitz and in division platform showcases.
ASPET regular, postdoc, and emeritus members can both submit their own work or sponsor the work of graduate students, undergraduates, and non-members. ASPET graduate student members may submit their own work but cannot sponsor others.
Award eligibility is based on student and postdoc submission to ASPET topic categories by the January 7, 2021 EB submission deadline. Be sure your ASPET membership is in good-standing to be eligible.
