From here you can submit abstracts and view and manage your event registration.
Registration is in English, and the congress currency is EURO €.
ABSTRACT SUBMISSIONS
Abstracts can be submitted via the online registration portal once your congress registration is complete. Delegates must be registered for the Meeting prior to submitting an abstract.
