The text must be limited to at most 3000 characters (including spaces), no pictures are allowed. Separate form fields for the abstract title and authors information will be provided. Please check your email account after submission for the confirmation message. In case of corrections please keep the deadline in your mind.

Technical Information for virtual Lectures

All Lectures will be held in a virtual format through Zoom on the virtual EUROCORR website. The time for Lectures (orals) is 20 minutes, including discussion. Strict timekeeping will be essential for the smooth running of the meeting. Lectures must be presented in English.

For the virtual EUROCORR 2020 we prefer to have live lectures in order to enable interactive scientific discussion. We will schedule the lectures of Asian/Australian authors in the morning and the lectures of American authors in the afternoon, so that all authors can hold their lectures during European day time hours. For the case that you are absolutely not available, an advance recording of your lecture for the congress may be a possibility. Please contact us if an advance recording is required.

If you wish, you can upload your presentation slides in advance of the congress (without deadline). Please login to your account, open your submission and use the ‘Presentation Upload’ link in order to upload your slides.

Each poster presentation will be displayed on a poster stand within the virtual conference. Your poster stand will display your poster title, the presenting author, the abstract, and the poster file. You also have the option of adding a single web link to your poster stand (YouTube video/demonstration, publication link, Linkedin/Xing bio, etc). Also your contact email will be available to the visitors for communication. A chat tool (Tawk.to) will be implemented, so that you will be able to communicate with interested colleagues (further information will follow). We will use the submitting person’s contact details for display of contact information.
