For an oral presentation request:

Please submit your abstract by October 10, 3:00 p.m.

Abstracts must be submitted online via the submission tab. Abstracts may be submitted in French or English. Abstracts must not exceed 250 words.

  • Limit of 2 students per laboratory is authorized.

  • Prioritization for students who did not present orally at the previous CERMO-FC annual conference.

Student oral presentations will be highlighted. Indeed, we will have the pleasure of inviting 10 students to present their research work. Additionally, abstracts that are not selected for an oral presentation will be eligible for a flash poster presentation (2 minutes to publicize their poster on stage).

We therefore strongly encourage students to choose an oral presentation when submitting their abstracts.

You will be informed on October 27 of the type of presentation for which you have been selected (oral, or poster with/without flash presentation).
