Dr Sam Moxon - How to Nail Your Conference Abstract

Dr Sam Moxon, narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

What’s that you say? An IN PERSON conference? Sign me up!!!

You may have noticed in recent months that more and more conferences are promising an in person experience this year. For Sam, this is extremely exciting. He loves conferences and has really missed seeing his friends, colleagues and collaborators (people can be all three!). There is no better place to make new connections, see some exciting new data and let your hair down than a conference. Some our closest collaborators are people we meet in the pub after the end of that day’s sessions (Top Tip: Always take the opportunity to go to one.) First, however, you need to submit your conference abstract. In most cases, your institute will only send you to a conference (they have to pay remember) if you are going to present something. That means you have to prepare and submit an abstract. So how do you do that? In this month’s blog, Sam gives you the best tips to write the perfect abstract.
