A word on scientific level & Review process

The scientific level of submissions is traditionally very high. Scientific quality and originality of your work is the sole basis for a decision on acceptance and presentation type (oral/poster). Each abstract is reviewed by at least 12 independent reviewers in a double blind reviewing process along the following parameters:

  • Originality of Content
  • Soundness of Conclusion
  • Importance
  • Quality
  • Novelty
  • Impact
