We welcome the submission of abstracts to be considered for inclusion in the conference poster sessions, and we anticipate a small number of accepted abstracts will be selected for short lightning talks within the main conference programme. GAMRIC accepts for review encore abstracts (abstracts previously shown at larger meetings), especially if they include new data or explore new angles of the research.
We encourage submission across a number of topics (Early Discovery and Development, Preclinical Development, Clinical Development, New antibacterial or antifungal classes, Non-traditional approaches, Stewardship, Antimicrobial Supply and Access, AMR Diagnostics, Preventatives / Vaccines, AMR Epidemiology) aligned with the focus of the conference.
However, please note that we will not accept abstracts that fall within the following topics and categories: viral, parasitic, Malaria or veterinary infections, single case studies or wastewater surveillance.
Regular abstract submission is open from Tuesday, 10 March 2026 until Tuesday, 31 March 2026, 12:00 (noon) CEST. Late-breaking abstract submission will take place in July.
The submitter is responsible for ensuring that all author names are accurate at the time of submission. This includes correct spelling, formatting, capitalisation, and punctuation of both names and affiliations. If the submitter is a co-author, they must ensure their name is included in the author list. The submitter is responsible for obtaining permission to submit and present the abstract from all co-authors and relevant stakeholders. GAMRIC is not liable for any errors in author names or affiliation details.
Abstract titles should be concise and adhere to the following guidelines:
The abstract submission tool uses a pre-set template to guide you through the necessary sections of your abstract. Be sure to enter each section of your abstract into the corresponding textbox.
The entire abstract, including the title, must not exceed 350 words. This word limit does not apply to figure descriptions and references. The official language of GAMRIC is UK English, and submitters are required to use this standard for grammar and spelling. Avoid using ALL CAPS in the text, except for abbreviations or acronyms.
For research abstracts, briefly outline the background, research context, and objectives. The methods section should include essential details about the research setting, data collection, and analytical methods. Results presented in the abstract must be original and not previously published or presented.
Authors are asked to add up to three keywords to best define the abstract content.
You can save and edit your abstract at any time before final submission. Upon submission, a confirmation email will be sent to the submitter, and all co-authors with a copy of the submitted abstract. All follow up correspondence regarding the abstract will be sent exclusively to the presenting author.
If you wish to change the type of abstract after starting the submission process, please withdraw your current abstract and begin a new submission with the correct abstract type.
There are no changes possible to the abstract content after abstract submission. For any questions or change of the presenting author please contact us using the contact below.
