Call for Papers

Abstract submission deadline extended to 31 January 2025

CALL FOR ABSTRACT

Authors wishing to present a paper at the NCSPER-2025 Conference are invited to submit original and unpublished research work in the form of an abstract covering any of the conference topics.

The abstract should be submitted in the submission form as well as MS Word document as per the template provided on this website. Abstracts for oral/poster presentation should be submitted online on our website www.ncsper.com by January 15, 2025.

The abstract should be 150-200 words and should be submitted without graphs and images. All fields should be completed before submission. The authors of the selected abstracts will be intimated by email by January 18, 2025. At least one of the authors should be registered for the Conference. A registered delegate is permitted to present one poster only. The abstract(s) received without the registration fee will not be included in the conference scientific program. However, registration is not necessary for the submission of an abstract.

GUIDELINES FOR POSTER PRESENTATION

The space available for each poster would be of 3´ 4 ft. Each poster would be allotted an identification mark (a number, which would be mounted on the top of the board by the organizers). Top section of the poster should indicate the title, authors and their affiliations. The contents of the poster may be divided into: Abstract, Introduction, Methodology, Results and Conclusions.

The posters should be displayed for a specified time period on either of the days of the conference. The authors are expected to be present for evaluation/public interaction.
