Abstract Preparation Guidelines

Late News Abstracts Due: March 19^th (POSTER Presentation Only)

Authors are invited to prepare abstracts, two pages in length, including text and figures. Text should be placed on the first page, figures occupying the second page. The abstract must explicitly highlight the new aspects of the work and conclusions that can be drawn; main results must be clearly indicated. The abstract shall be no more than 500 words in length, using no smaller than 12-point type.

The abstract should include the paper title, author’s name, affiliation, address, fax and telephone numbers and e-mail. Underline the presenting author and at the bottom of your abstract, indicate the topic area of your paper.

Abstracts will be reviewed and selected according to how well they address the following questions:

What are the significant new accomplishments?
What is new in relation to previous work? Provide references to relevant literature (including publications by the author’s group).
What is the goal or motivation of the work?
What is the impact or significance of the results to the nanotechnology, microtechnology, or biotechnology fields?
If your work involves modeling and simulation, state unambiguously whether results have been compared to experimental data, and provide details.

Contributed papers will be considered for either oral or poster presentation unless the authors specifically request the poster session. Oral presentations will be allotted 15 minutes plus 5 minutes for discussion.

In addition to the Technical Program, an exciting series of Social Events are being prepared to allow attendees ample opportunity to interact socially and enjoy the sights and sounds of Anaheim.
