Important: The ACCME has implemented a new regulation for abstract submissions. In addition to the presenter, it is now required that all authors must disclose any affiliations or conflicts by completing a “Speaker and Planner Disclosure Form” in order for the abstract to be eligible for consideration as part of this year’s program. Given the new requirement, individuals submitting an abstract must now include all abstract authors' email addresses. After the abstract is successfully submitted, an email will go out to each author requesting their disclosure for the abstract. Please ensure all authors are aware of this requirement. An abstract will not be considered unless the completed disclosure form is received from each author.

Presentation

All presenters are required to use Microsoft PowerPoint. Speakers may not use their own computers and all presentations must be loaded on to the Society computer system.

    • Oral (conventional) presentation only.
    • ePoster submission only.

SSR would like to create enduring educational content for the members-only web site. With the submission of an ePoster, you are giving the SSR permission to post the content in the members section on our website.
