Submitting Disclosures for WORLDSymposium

  • Each author and co-author must complete the following steps to finalize their own disclosure.
  • No one may complete a disclosure for any other person.
  • All authors must have their disclosure finalized BEFORE they will be able to complete and submit their abstract.
  • Abstract submission deadline is October 2, 2023 at 10:00 AM CDT. No exceptions.

Important reminders for abstract submissions:

  • Search for co-authors using only the first few letters of the authors last name. Do NOT search by email address.
  • Please confirm the correct email address is used for all co-authors prior to submission. If an incorrect or different email is used for a co-author, the abstract cannot be submitted and disclosures will not link to the abstract. 
  • Encourage co-authors to submit their disclosures even before the abstract is submitted to expedite the process.
