****You cannot edit your abstract after it is submitted. Proofread your abstract carefully!****
- Complete all required fields on the online submission form before submitting an abstract.
- Only the primary presenter needs to submit an abstract, and only one abstract should be submitted for each presentation.
- We recommend that you print the abstract submission form and have all of your necessary information on hand before entering the information online.
- Communication regarding your abstract submission will come from
lyon@roanoke.edu.
Abstracts should:
- State, in clear terms, the central research question and the purpose of the research.
- Provide a brief discussion of the research methodology.
- State conclusions, either final or anticipated.
- Be well organized.
There is a limit of two abstracts submitted per primary presenter.
Abstracts should observe the following:
Complete the abstract using appropriate upper and lower case letters. It is a good idea to work on your abstract with your mentor's participation ahead of the actual submission process. That way you can simply cut and paste it into the abstract body text box when you get to that step. It is difficult to generate the optimal abstract in real-time during the submission process.
