A negative swab antigen test within 48 hours will also be requested. More specific information will be provided closer to the meeting.

The registration fee includes 4 coffee breaks, 1 lunch (on 25 March) and 2 dinners (on 24 and 25 March), and accommodation (including breakfast) from 24 to 26 March (two nights) at Grand Hotel Salerno. Room availability is limited and participants are strongly encouraged to register as soon as possible (if overbooked, registrations will be closed). The costs are indicated below.

If, to benefit from the reduced rate, you plan to apply for a membership, please remember that you must do so strictly before 11 February 2022.

For details on memberships, visit the ABCD website and SIBBM website.

N.B. Registration fee payments received after the deadline will be subject to a late payment charge of € 30, which will be added to the total cost. If your payment is not received until 25 February 2022, your registration will be cancelled.

Abstracts

Abstracts are accepted exclusively after registration through your personal myDOTT page (you will need to register to have access to the latter).

Only one abstract per participant is allowed. The abstract should be submitted by the presenting author only.

Abstracts guidelines:

  • Title. The title must start in uppercase and continue in lowercase, except for conventional terms (ATP, DNA, NFκB, etc). Example:
        This title is written correctly
         This Title is Not Properly Written
         ALSO THIS TITLE IS WRONG
  • Authors. If more than one author (but only in that case), underline your name (the presenting author, in whatever position you appear in the author list) and use commas to separate the author names; do not use 'and' before the last author. Write your name and surname in full; for any other authors use initial(s) for the first name(s) followed by the surname. If more than one affiliation (but only in that case), use sequential superscript numbers to identify each institution. Example:
       Mario Rossi1, J. Doe2, F. Bloggs1,2
       1Dept Biomembranes, Golgi & Veratti Univ., Pavia, Italy
       2Dept Bioblast Analyses, Altmann Univ., Leipzig, Germany
  • Abstract text. Keep the abstract text to within 2000 characters, spaces included (which is roughly equivalent to 250 words).

The abstract submission deadline is 15 February 2022. The organisers will then review the received abstracts for oral or poster presentations.

Travel Grants

The ABCD and SIBBM will award travel grants, covering the registration fee, to a good number of participants. To be eligible, the following conditions must be met:

  • be a member or a junior member of the ABCD or of the SIBBM;
  • be less than 35 years old at the start of the meeting.

You may apply for the travel grant during the registration procedure. The number of travel grants assigned will depend on the number of requests.
