About the Presentation

Authors of selected abstracts will give a formal, 10 minute presentation during a walk-around session at the Annual Assembly. All presenters will be given the opportunity to gather feedback from experts following the presentation. Accepted posters will be presented digitally onsite.

Authors are asked to consider both the impact of their proposed topic or research on underrepresented and underserved populations and its relevance to the diverse groups of attendees. Accordingly, presenters are encouraged to address issues of cultural competency in their abstracts, case examples, and presentations. When applicable, presenters are encouraged to describe how issues of cultural diversity and inclusion are considered in their specific aims or session narrative.

Review Process

Following submission, a panel of interdisciplinary, experienced palliative care educators will review the abstracts. Notification of abstract status will be emailed in December 2019 to the presenting author listed on the submission.

Expert HPM educators will review the submissions utilizing a standardized rubric to ensure all required aspects of the proposal are present. In addition, the review will ensure that submissions are of high quality and will contribute knowledge to the field.
