We are no longer accepting abstracts
As you know, we have decided to make Vascular Biology a fully virtual event. It will be held October 25-29, 2021.
We are still accepting abstracts for ePoster only - those that submitted an abstract for oral presentation, their abstracts are being reviewed for inclusion in the program. Unfortunately, we will have less time for short talks in the virtual program - HOWEVER - all abstracts not presented as a talk within Vascular Biology 2021 will be considered for inclusion in a future NAVBO Focus Session (these will begin in November)
ePoster Templates -
You can begin to construct your poster now. Information regarding uploading your ePoster will be sent to you. Instructions for ePosters can be found here.
Download Template 1
Download Template 2
You may submit more than one abstract, however, the same abstract may not be submitted to more than one topic.
The organizers will attempt to program all submitted abstracts. NAVBO reserves the right to reject any abstract. Authors should indicate their preference for either poster, oral presentation or ePoster; however, due to the limited number of slots within oral sessions, most abstracts will be programmed for poster presentation. If you are not able to attend the meeting, your abstract will be an ePoster and you will participate in our Virtual Poster Sessions.
- Use Arial font, 10 point
- Abstract titles are limited to 200 characters (including spaces)
- Abstracts are limited to 1,750 characters (including spaces)
- DO NOT include the title, authors or author affiliations in the body of the abstract
- Enter each co-author into the database, be consistent with affiliations and include co-authors' emails, cities, states and countries
- Additional instructions available when you enter the submission site.
