Authors can make changes, include special characters, and approve their abstracts in real time.
Review Module Reviewers go online to the society's Abstract Central site to view or download abstracts, enter grades and scores, and submit comments to the database. The reviewer site is user-friendly, automatically organized, and updated throughout the review process, making for a very efficient review process. Numerous reports can be generated from the database to assist in the monitoring and management process. The online itinerary planner is available for users, allowing them to mark abstracts of interest and thereby plan their time at the meeting. There is no charge for online display and automatic HTML composition of abstracts.
