Abstracts may be selected by the reviewers for either a poster presentation (with dedicated viewing time over the day) or for one of the oral presentation slots. The four highest scoring abstracts will be invited to present their work as an oral presentation. Please submit an abstract via the form adjacent. The deadline is 31st August 2026 and the guidelines are below:

• Abstracts  must be a maximum of 350 words (excluding title, author list, institutional affiliations, table/figure legends). You may include one table or one figure. Please be mindful that abstracts longer than 350 words will not be considered.

• Abstracts are scored on content, clarity and presentation, and adherence to the word limit.

• Abstracts on protocols only or referring to results “which will” become available will not be accepted.

• If accepted, one of the listed presenting authors must attend the EMTS Winter Meeting in person to present the work. Please list all contributing authors involved in the work.

• Please do not submit multiple abstracts derived from the same dataset or project. Abstracts containing previously published data will not be considered. A maximum of two abstracts from the same presenting first author will be accepted.

• Abstract submission is open across disciplines and across clinical and research. It focuses on those in training and student posts but can include those in middle grade positions. It does not include consultants.

• Case reports are welcome, provided they offer clear clinical learning points.

• Abstracts submitted to the ERS or BTS are acceptable.

• Corresponding authors who submit an abstract will not be expected to pay the delegate fee, although we would encourage EMTS membership.
