Submission Guidelines

Submission Deadline: November 28, 2024

SUBMIT ABSTRACTS HERE

Please note a few important items:

  • All accepted presenters will be required to pre-register for the conference by March 10, 2025.

  • Only unpublished papers should be submitted. Published papers will NOT be accepted.

  • Individuals can only serve as a presenting author twice at maximum, but may submit more than two abstracts for review only if each addresses a different research. There are no restrictions as co-authors.

  • Unfortunately, PAS cannot accommodate schedule requests; if your paper is accepted, it could be scheduled any time during the conference.

  • Accepted presenters may be called on to be discussants or chairs for sessions. Presenters interested in serving as discussants or chairs may also indicate their interest in their submission form.

  • There will be no travel awards for PAS 2025.

Presenting authors need to select themes for the submitted abstract. Please consider submitting your abstract even if you believe it does not fit precisely into one of the options available. Abstracts will be reviewed and an abstract’s topical area may be adjusted to fit similar abstracts together for presentation.

The use of abbreviations is acceptable, but the full name should appear at the first mention.
