Important
All delegates are encouraged to submit an abstract for presentation at FIS/HIS International 2022 as either an oral communication (during the free paper sessions on Friday 23 September), as a poster, or both.
Authors can indicate their preferred topic and method of presentation during the online submission process. All abstracts are reviewed by a panel following submission and a decision will be made as to whether to offer an oral or poster communication slot. The presenting author will be notified of the presentation format at the abstract acceptance notification stage. The decision of the panel is final.
