Technical programme

2417 Abstracts accepted from 67 different Countries !

The abstract selection process is now closed and all authors have been notified about the results. 2417 abstracts have been accepted of the 3417 that was submitted. Of these abstracts 1911 are accepted for an oral presentation and 506 are accepted for an interactive presentation.

All abstracts accepted for the congress will be presented as either oral or as interactive presentations. As usual they will be published in the IAC proceedings and in the IAC Paper Archive. New for this year is that the IAC papers will also be indexed in the largest cited reference enhanced multidisciplinary databases: Elsevier’s SCOPUS and Compendex.
