HSG’s annual meeting hosts multiple poster viewing sessions and platform presentations throughout the event. Abstracts and platform presenters are reviewed and selected by the HSG Publications Committee according to the timeline below.

All accepted abstracts will be presented during the annual meeting poster sessions. Abstract authors are expected to hang their posters in the assigned space, attend the meeting, stand with their posters, interact with attendees, and answer questions during the viewing sessions. Posters will also be displayed on TV monitors throughout the duration of the Annual Meeting. Best attempts will be made to co-locate posters if the author is presenting more than one abstract.

Two abstract authors will be selected to give a 10-minute presentation on their research during a plenary session.

Submitted abstracts chosen by the HSG Publications Committee during the regular submission period will be published in the Journal of Huntington’s Disease (https://www.iospress.com/catalog/journals/journal-of-huntingtons-disease), which will be available in print form to all meeting attendees.

Abstracts must be submitted in accordance with the Journal of Huntington’s Disease Manuscript Submission & Author Instructions Policy (https://www.iospress.nl/journal/journal-of-huntingtons-disease/?tab=submission-of-manuscripts#submission-of-manuscripts). In particular, submitters are asked to adhere to the following:

The abstract for research papers should follow the “structured abstract” format:
BACKGROUND:
OBJECTIVE:
METHODS:
RESULTS:
CONCLUSIONS:

The abstract should not exceed 250 words.

Submitters are required to submit the edited abstract in MS Word format (.DOC or .DOCX). A detailed summary of the abstract or full plain text version is also required to be entered or pasted into the appropriate submission portal field.

Authors are requested to use the Vancouver citation style. Place citations as numbers in square brackets in the text. All publications cited in the text should be presented in a list of references at the end of the manuscript. List the references in the order in which they appear in the text. Only articles published or accepted for publication should be listed in the reference list. We discourage textual references to unpublished and unavailable data. With permission, the author can reference a personal communication with name in the discussion section. If an article has a DOI, this should be provided after the page number details. The number is added after the letters ‘doi’. Manuscripts will not be considered if they do not conform to the Vancouver citation guidelines.

Please DO NOT INCLUDE tables, figures, supplementary material, or graphics in your abstract submission. Tables, figures, supplementary materials, and additional graphics may be included in your poster and virtual poster booth configuration.

The first author named in the abstract should be listed as the Poster Presenter.

Incomplete abstracts and those submitted after the deadline will not be accepted.

There is no limit to the number abstracts that any single author or delegated submitter may submit.

HSG Membership is not a requirement to submit an abstract.
