A conference is a "meeting" usually organised by academic societies. They invite people to do submissions, usually in the forms of abstract to present their medical or scientific research findings. These type of conferences usually have a scientific or programme committee that is responsible to review submitted abstracts and select who would present at the conference. A conference abstract is a review or summary of your work that you wish to present at an upcoming conference. A conference abstract can be both clinically and/or research-oriented. It can be understood to be a concise summary of a proposed conference presentation. It is a stand-alone piece of writing that explains your intended presentation to the conference committee. As the conference abstract is often the only way in which the conference committee can judge your intended presentation, it is, by nature, promotional.

It is important to understand that a conference abstract is not a research paper abstract. Conference abstracts are independent pieces of writing that “succeed or fail on their own merits”

Writing and presenting your abstract is your opportunity to put your best foot forward and to highlight the importance of your research.

When you start thinking about submitting a conference abstract, keep the following three things in mind

• You have research to present
• You are choosing an appropriate conference for your work
• The type of presentation you would like to give
