Submissions
The ISPW 2024 Scientific Committee invites social pharmacy researchers, educators, and students to submit abstracts and workshops for the 22nd International Social Workshop. The conference is July 7-11, 2024. Abstracts in all areas of social pharmacy will be considered, including social pharmacy education.
We have planned for 20 workshops, 72 oral podia, and 40 posters. The deadline for abstract submission is March 8, 2024. You will be notified by April 15, 2024, about the status of your submission.
ISPW is a collaborative learning community that engages in shared educational experiences. In this meeting, you may present your work using three types of sessions.
Oral Presentations are 10-minute presentations with 5-minute discussions and will run in parallel sessions throughout the conference. Please present using a slide show format. -
Posters will be presented on a 1.2 m x 1.8 m (4 ft high x 6 wide ft) board during the poster session on Monday and will remain up for public viewing. An optional poster printing service will cost approximately $75 CDN per poster. Final costs are to be determined after May 15, 2024.
Workshops are interactive 90-minute sessions with diverse small-group activities to showcase, build, and integrate knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to pharmacy education and research. These are sessions designed to share topics that benefit from active engagement and audience discussion.
Evaluation Criteria
The scientific committee members will evaluate submissions using prior ISPW criteria, including significance, innovation, methods, generalizability, and ability to translate findings into practice.
An international panel of judges will review your submission.
You may receive feedback on your submission or be asked to resubmit. Works in progress will only be accepted as poster presentations.
All submissions must be in English and include a corresponding author.
Poster + Podium Submissions
Your abstract should not exceed 300 words, excluding authors, affiliations, and section headers. (i.e., background, objective, results, and conclusions).
Workshop Submissions
We encourage workshops with multiple authors. You will be asked to submit the objective, number of participants, length, content, structure, and activities.
We hope you are excited to share your research and science as part of ISPW 2024. Please submit early, as space is limited.
