Abstracts and full papers must be submitted in English. Summaries should contain sufficient information about the problem, methodology and original new results.
There will be oral and poster presentations of contributed papers in each session. All contributed papers will be evaluated and accepted for presentation based on extended abstracts. Final decision concerning oral versus poster will be made according to author's selection and session topics. The oral presentations will be chosen to highlight a specific subject within a session theme, and not necessarily for their scientific quality. The number of oral presentations will therefore be more limited in number to provide more time for posters. The authors may also present their most recent work as a poster without having to write a paper. There will be special sessions for recent-work posters.
All papers, keynotes, oral and poster presentations (except the posters dedicated to most recent work with no paper) will be peer-reviewed for publication and published in a dedicated volume of proceedings in the Annals of New York Academy of Sciences shortly after the symposium.
The abstracts of all "new"
papers, keynotes, oral and poster presentations (except the
posters dedicated to most recent work with no paper) should be sent to Prof.Dr. Sam Sideman in
camera-ready form and preferably as MS-Word Document in a diskette, by direct uploading, or as attachment
to an email message to arrive by January 15, 2002.
The abstracts of "new" most-recent-work posters should also be sent to Prof.Dr. Sam Sideman in a similar manner
to arrive by March 1, 2002.
The final abstracts of all papers, including keynotes and recent-work posters, accepted for presentation, will be included in a book of abstracts which will be available on site at the registration.
Abstracts should be prepared in accordance with the Instructions to Authors available in html, Word, or pdf formats.
Manuscripts should be prepared in accordance with the Instructions to Authors, mirrored from the NYAS web site.
The attendees of the symposium will receive a free copy of the Proceedings. Extra copies can be ordered form of the Academy using the special order form.
