Abstracts submitted for SfRBM 2024 must be previously unpublished work. Submitted abstracts will be subject to a double-blind peer review process. Presenting authors of the highest-scored abstracts from junior investigators (up to 12 years after completing PhD) will be invited to share their work in one of 33 oral presentation slots within 11 featured scientific symposia on the program. All other abstracts will be programmed as a poster to be presented on one day of the SfRBM 2024 poster symposia. The deadline to submit your abstract is September 6, 2024. The results of this process will be posted on the SfRBM site during the week of October 7.
Abstract categories for 2024
Any topic that does not fit into one of the disease categories listed above may be submitted in the “Chemical Biology” category.

The abstract submission site is now closed.
SfRBM 2024 will feature 11 symposia spread out over 3 days that will feature 2 invited senior speakers and 3 junior speakers (up to 12 years after completing PhD) from submitted abstracts. When submitting your abstract for an oral presentation, please select up to 2 symposia where you would like to be considered for a junior speaker spot (see list below). If you are an investigator who is more than 12 years after completing your PhD, please select "Poster Presentation Only" when submitting your abstract. 33 abstracts will be selected for primary authors to give 20-minute oral presentations of their research (15 min presentation, 5 min Q&A) within the following 11 scheduled symposia.
4:15 pm - 6:15 pm | November 21 - 23, 2024
During each day of these three-day sessions, posters will be on display from 9:00 am - 6:15 pm and can be viewed at any time during this period. Each day, two hours of formal presentation time (4:15 pm - 6:15 pm) is scheduled for authors to be available to discuss their work with other attendees. Poster boards for display of abstracts will be 4 feet (122 cm) high x 8 feet (244 cm) wide for greater display area (click here for an example). Posters may be set up from 7:00 am - 9:00 am on the presenter's scheduled presentation day.
Organized around themes not covered elsewhere at SfRBM 2024, the Featured Poster Symposia will take place each day of our Poster Sessions (4:30 pm - 5:30 pm), adjacent to the Poster Presentation Hall. Presenters will have 6 minutes each (3 min presentation and 3 min discussion) and be limited to 4 slides maximum (title slide, intro, key findings, and results/conclusions).
