COSYNE 2018

Call for Papers

Before you log onto the submission website, you should have the following items prepared: (1) title, (2) author list (including email addresses of all authors), and (3) two-page PDF submission. Submissions that do not meet the following guidelines may be rejected.

Abstracts will be evaluated on the basis of a two page (A4 or US Letter) submission in PDF format. This two-page PDF should contain:

• Title - 100 characters or fewer (including spaces), capitalized in sentence case
• Author list (email and affiliations may be omitted)
• 300-word Summary - brief description of the study's primary findings, emphasizing their significance, generality, novelty and relevance. You will be asked to copy this 300-word summary into a text-only box; it will be included in the conference program if your submission is accepted.
• Additional Detail - use the remaining space to expand upon the central question(s), approach, results, and/or conclusions of the study. You may include equations as appropriate. Figures are optional. You need not touch upon all the major points of the Summary, but should aim to include whatever detail will best help reviewers to evaluate the significance of your study. Do not feel obliged to fill the entire two pages.

Font size (including any figure legends) must be at least 12 point. Margins should be at least 0.5". This two-page PDF will be the only document seen by reviewers. (Abstracts exceeding two pages will have additional pages removed). Submissions that do not meet these guidelines may be rejected.
