Notification of abstract acceptance
Authors will be notified at the end of June if their abstract has been accepted for presentation at the YIM and main Congress.


Publication 
Accepted abstracts for the PReS Congress will be published online as a supplement to Pediatric Rheumatology provided you register and attend the Congress. Abstracts submitted for publication in the supplement must be original and must not have been already published elsewhere. The Editor-in-Chief of the Journal may request revisions or clarifications, or may reject any abstract that does not meet the required Journal standard. Abstracts from the Young Investigators Meeting will not be published in Pediatric Rheumatology. For your abstract to be published in the Book of Abstracts distributed at the Congress and Pediatric Rheumatology, you must register and pay a registration fee by Friday 25th July 2008.

YIM abstract prizes
