Only abstracts with original work tied to the eight conference tracks will be accepted (subthemes can be found here):
All accepted abstracts will be included in the poster hall at the conference center in Rabat for the duration of the conference. In addition, some selected abstracts will be invited to give an oral presentation during designated abstract sessions (schedule to be determined).
An updated timeline for notifications will be available soon.
Abstracts that have previously been presented elsewhere will be considered at the jury’s discretion, but priority will be given to abstracts that have not yet been presented at any other scientific conference.
Edits cannot be made to an abstract once it has been submitted. However, in the event that your abstract is selected for an oral or poster presentation and has undergone significant changes after acceptance, those changes should be highlighted in the abstract presentation.
CPHIA 2024 is an in-person conference. Selected abstract presenters are expected to attend the conference in Rabat, Morocco to give an oral or poster presentation.
If your abstract is accepted for an oral or poster presentation, your conference registration fee will be waived.
Only one person per abstract will receive a fee wavier. Co-authors and collaborators will not have their registration fee waived.
There may be a limited number of scholarships available to cover travel and accommodation expenses for early career abstract presenters. You will be prompted during the submission process to check a box if you would like to be considered for this support. To request this support, you are required to submit a statement of need along with your abstract.
Please note that a request for support does not mean automatic selection for a scholarship. Only presenters of accepted abstracts will be eligible for scholarships. Only one scholarship per abstract will be granted. Co-authors and collaborators are not eligible for scholarship. Authors of rejected abstracts are not eligible for scholarship. Scholarships are non-transferrable.
Applicants will be notified if a scholarship will be awarded along with the notification of the acceptance or rejection of their abstracts.
For other inquiries or questions about your specific submission, please reach out to CPHIAabstracts@africacdc.org and include your submission ID, and the name and email of the submitter.
