North American Veterinary Dermatology Forum
April 7-12, 2008
The program committee of the 2008 North American Veterinary Dermatology Forum (NAVDF) is calling for contributions for Late-Breaking Free Communications (Original Research and Clinical abstract sessions) to be presented at on Friday, April 11, 2008, in Denver, Colorado. Abstracts for the Residents Session will not be accepted. Although residents are welcome to submit abstracts for the Free Communications sessions, such abstracts must be separate and distinct from those used to satisfy the ACVD credentialing process. Late-breaking abstracts will not be published in the Forum Proceedings, but will be distributed separately on the day of presentation and will be published in the journal Veterinary Dermatology.
Original Research Abstracts: This session will consist of short oral presentations (12 minutes) of original scientific studies (basic, applied, clinical) in animal or comparative dermatology.
Clinical Abstracts: This session will consist of short oral presentations (10-12 minutes) of interesting case reports or clinical studies.
Studies submitted should not have been presented at a national or international meeting prior to the 2008 NAVDF. Abstracts submitted for all sessions should adhere strictly to the format guidelines for the NAVDF. The abstracts must include the final results of the study. Incomplete abstracts or failure to follow the format will lead to rejections of the paper without review. Each abstract will be evaluated blindly by three members of the program committee and scored based on design, originality, and relevance to dermatology. The abstracts will be ranked according to score and selected for presentation in the session requested, based on available space. For 2008, all presentations are required to be prepared utilizing Power Point and copied to a CD ROM for LCD projection. Kodochrome projection will not be available.
