It is time to submit abstracts for the upcoming Research Symposium! This information is being provided only to faculty mentors so please pass this on to your students. Abstracts should be submitted as soon as possible.  

The absolute deadline for abstract submission is 5pm, Tuesday, March 19, 2013.  NO ABSTRACTS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER THIS DATE.  Abstracts will be submitted using the internet.  To submit an abstract, click here.

NOTE: Abstracts submitted on disk or by hard copy will not be accepted.  Carefully follow the directions at the submission site.  Once an abstract is submitted, an email will be automatically sent to the advisor, the student and to the committee with the abstract. However, you should print a version of your final submission for your records.

YOU MUST review and verify all portions of the abstract. If there are any questions or problems, please contact Dr. Maury Harris  (wharris@stthom.edu) as soon as possible to get any mistakes corrected. The next page contains the instructions you will find once you enter the Call for Abstracts website. These instructions are included here to draw your attention to additional changes in the procedure.

Note: Participants must bring a copy of their presentation on CD/flashdrive with them on the day of the presentation.  The poster session will be split over three days, from Thursday afternoon through Saturday morning.  See Presentation Guidelines for poster dimensions and other poster information. 

If you have any problems or questions, do not hesitate to contact Dr. Maury Harris (wharris@stthom.edu).
