We will be selecting posters to be featured in the Hot Topics in Neonatology™/Neonatal Quality at Hot Topics virtual poster showcase through an abstract submission and review process. Abstracts for both conferences are now being accepted.
The abstract deadline is October 6.
The virtual poster showcase will take place throughout the entire conference, from December 10-13, and will also be available for three (3) months after the conference. All applicants selected will be required to submit a 2-5 minute video discussing their poster. Conference registrants will be able to contact poster presenters through the conference platform to discuss their research.

All authors are also asked to submit a 2-5 minute video discussing their findings. They must also host a 1-hour live chat session during the conference on the conference platform (date/time TBD).
