CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
Presenters may present remotely if they cannot attend in person. In person presenters will be given first preference.
We aim to provide an international platform for researchers and veterinarians with an interest in wildlife and wildlife management to present their knowledge and experience.
The Congress committee of The Wildlife Group of the SAVA invites abstracts for presentation as free communications as well as case studies and research results. Presentations can be either oral presentations or posters.
Papers reviewing recent advances, or relating to research into matters concerning relevant topics that may be of interest to wildlife veterinarians will be considered.
Practising veterinarians are encouraged to submit abstracts.
Full manuscripts will be given preference should an oversupply of submissions occur.
Guideline to Authors
The abstract must be a complete but concise synopsis of the content that will be both informative and useful to the potential audience. The format for the abstracts is flexible, but should contain a clear objective, methods and results (where applicable) and a logical conclusion. Two independent people will review abstracts and successful authors will be notified within two weeks. Submitters must accept the terms and conditions for speakers. Abstracts that do not comply with the following format will be returned to the authors for corrections:
- Must be in English and typed in MS-word format. Abstracts may not exceed 350 words.
- Must clearly indicate the author’s name. Write names of authors in the order of last names and asterisk (*) the person who will be the presenter.
- Must clearly indicate the organisation (name and location of institution, clinic, practice etc). If the affiliation of co-workers differs, indicate the names and affiliations by corresponding numbers
- Must contain a list of references.
