  • A short abstract summary to introduce and highlight the submission. This may be used to promote the submission in the conference program, website or conference app (max 1000 characters)
  • Desired presentation format: Oral or Poster (If you submit a proposal for an oral and are unsuccessful, your submission will be automatically considered for a poster)
  • Your name, affiliation/institution and email address as the submitter and contact of the submission
  • The names, affiliations and email addresses for all corresponding authors in the order they are to appear in the program
  • Name of presenting author
  • Membership information, including member level and membership number

  • Indicate interest in being considered for a student abstract award
  • If the abstract is supported by an ASB Grant-in-Aid (GIA)
  • Submission theme(s) that best matches your research (choose up to 3 at the most)
  • Submit the abstract via ASB’s online abstract management system. As part of the submission process you will be required to upload your .pdf based on the required abstract template

Note – The American Society of Biomechanics expects that all submissions represent original work that have not been previously presented elsewhere.  While the ASB encourages authors to further develop their works into full length journal publications, the ASB expects that authors of ASB abstracts not send those same abstracts to other national or international conferences.  Should there be new data or part of an ongoing study, we welcome the submission.

Submitters will be notified in late May as to the acceptance of their submission.  If you do not hear from us by the end of May, please contact us via email and include the Abstract ID number.
