Abstracts
Submission Deadline: Closed
The International Society for Advancement of Cytometry seeks abstracts on the most innovative research in biological, life, and physical sciences.
While many submissions might fall into more than one of these general categories, we ask authors to select only one area of interest. Overlap into more than one category as well as cross-over between fields is anticipated and expected and will be considered during abstract review for CYTO 2025 programming.
- CYTOMETRY APPLICATIONS
Biomarkers, Translational Research, Drug Discovery Botany Cancer biology Clinical and Diagnostics Environmental Cytometry Food Science Immunology Infectious Disease Marine Signal transduction Vaccine Research -
CYTOMETRY PRACTICE
Antibody Validation Biosafety Education High Content (Conventional, Mass, Spectral, Imaging) Mass Cytometry Shared Resource Laboratories Standardization -
CYTOMETRY TECHNOLOGIES
Cytometry Instrument Development Detectors (or Detector Technology) Lasers and light sources New Probes Single particle spectroscopy Software and Data Analysis -
IMAGING AND MICROSCOPY
Correlative microscopy and imaging Multiparameter imaging (High Content Analysis) Quantitative phase imaging Spectral imaging Super-resolution microscopy Timelapse/time-dependent imaging (Kinetic Image Cytometry)
IMPORTANT DEADLINES:
- Submission site opens: September 23, 2024
- Oral and Poster Abstract Submission Deadline: Closed
- Authors Notified of Acceptance: February 17, 2025
Oral Abstract Submission
Oral Presentations allow researchers to present the latest scientific and technological advances in the Cytometry topic areas. Talks are scheduled for 15 minutes (10 minutes for presentation, 5 minutes for audience questions). Abstracts should include an introduction, establish the area of the work, background, and context for the reader. The methods used should be described, especially any new or improved techniques. The results should be clearly stated, and their significance in the context of previous work should be outlined in the conclusion.
*If your oral abstract is not accepted, it will only be considered for poster presentation if you select this preference during the submission process.
Poster Abstract Submission
Poster presentations will be displayed LANDSCAPE – 4 feet high by 6 feet wide. Authors must be present during a designated time during the scheduled poster sessions to address CYTO attendee questions about their presentation.
Preparing for Your Online Submission
The Society uses an online submission system for presentations. For a proposal to be considered, submissions will only be accepted through the online submission site, must contain all the required elements, and be completed by the deadline.
Ideal Submissions
- Contain new, original research content or scientific concepts.
- Interesting, innovative, meaningful, or compelling content will address all learner levels.
- Articulate the rationale for the presentation which is supported by literature and/or research.
- Statement of the purpose should be clear to include the scientific method, specific experimental questions, statistical analyses with conclusions supported by results.
- Identify the potential impact of the research on clinical practice, education of students, the profession or future research.
- Can NOT be product or promotion specific.
- The Organizing Committee reserves the right to decline a presentation for any submitted abstracts that lack scientific content or merit, or that merely announce the availability of a resource or service.
- Results or studies that have been published or that will be accepted for publication elsewhere prior to the submission deadline may not be accepted for presentation.
- With regard to research using human subjects, ISAC endorses the protections embodied in the Basic Principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and their expansion in the regulations governing research supported by the U.S. Government (45 CFR Part 46; 56 FR 28003). ISAC does not endorse and will not publish the results of research that was not conducted in accordance with these principles. Investigations involving animals reported in abstracts must have been conducted in conformance with approved principles of the care and use of animals in research.
