Cancellation policy

Abstracts are accepted exclusively through this website, through your personal myISCAM2026 area; you will need to to have an account to have access to the latter.

Only one abstract per participant is allowed. The abstract should be submitted by the presenting author only.

The abstract submission deadline is 30 June 2026. The organisers will then review the received abstracts for oral and poster presentations.

Abstracts guidelines:

• Title. The title must start in uppercase and continue in lowercase, except for conventional terms (ATP, DNA, NFκB, etc). Example:
      This title is written correctly
       This Title is Not Properly Written
       ALSO THIS TITLE IS WRONG
• Authorship. If more than one author (but only in that case), underline your name (the presenting author, in whatever position you appear in the author list) and use commas to separate the author names; do not use 'and' before the last author. Write your name and surname in full; for any other authors use initial(s) for the first name(s) followed by the surname. If more than one affiliation (but only in that case), use sequential superscript numbers to identify each institution. Example:
     Mario Rossi¹, J. Doe², F. Bloggs^{1,2
     1}Dept Biomembranes, Golgi & Veratti Univ., Pavia, Italy
     ²Dept Bioblast Analyses, Altmann Univ., Leipzig, Germany
• Abstract text. Keep the abstract text to within 1500 characters, spaces included (which is roughly equivalent to 200 words). Do not include references or figures.
