Contributed Sessions

Contributed sessions include papers, posters, and speed presentations. You simply have to submit a presentation abstract online from late November to early February and the JSM Program Committee will include it in a session.

Contributed sessions can be:

  • Papers: Seven participants (each presenting for 15 minutes) grouped by the JSM Program Committee
  • Speed: A “hybrid” of a poster and presentation. A speed session consists of 20 oral presentations of five minutes each, with 10 minutes of break after the first set of 10 talks. The short oral presentations are then followed by an e-poster (offered on a 42” LCD display in the landscape position) session later the same day.
  • Posters: Presentations are grouped by a JSM partner society or ASA section.

Note: If you are interested in serving as a session chair, please contact the member of the program committee representing the section/society of interest to you.
