General Abstract Information

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION IS CLOSED

Abstract notifications will be sent by email to the presenting author as early as December 17, 2024 and no later than December 31, 2024.

In an effort to continuously evolve, SRI has modified some of its abstract sub-categories. Therefore, please carefully review where your abstract(s) might best fit. This includes intertwining global health into numerous categories, to emphasize its importance in a plethora of reproductive health topics. We are also pleased to add a new category on The Future of Reproductive Regenerative Medicine!

Below are the policies of the SRI abstract submission process. By submitting an abstract, you are agreeing to abide by these policies.

Abstract Submission Guidelines

You do not need to be a member of SRI to submit an abstract.
A non-refundable processing fee of $50.00 (US) is required for each abstract. Payment must be completed online using Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or American Express to complete the submission process.
Three (3) keywords for each abstract will be included.
You are allotted 2,700 characters, which will include your Abstract Title, Abstract Body, Authors/Institutions. The allotted characters do not include white space. Figures and Tables will not be accepted for 2025.
Please review the SRI Policy on Abstract Withdrawal and confirm compliance on the Questionnaire page.
The expectation when an abstract is submitted, is that the submitting author will be in attendance either at their poster, or oral.
If accepted for presentation at the meeting, the abstract will be published as entered into the 2025 Annual Meeting Program. However, the Editors reserve the right to edit any abstract that contains grammatical errors.
Each submitted abstract will be reviewed by 4-6 expert reviewers, scored according to criteria described below, and 15% of the accepted abstracts will be chosen for oral presentation. Please note that as the SRI Program Committee is committed to maintaining high standards for the meeting, it is anticipated that a number of low-ranking abstracts will be rejected following peer-review.
Case Reports are not generally encouraged for submission as abstracts unless they significantly advance the field of Reproductive Science.

The SRI will not be held responsible for abstract submissions not received via the website or for submission errors caused by internet service outages, hardware or software delays, power outages or unforeseen events.

Significance/Relevance: Does the work address an important problem?
Objective/Hypothesis: Is an objective, specific research question and/or hypothesis stated?
Methods: Are the methods described? Are the methods employed appropriate to the research question? Were new methods used and validated?
Results: Are the results described clearly and succinctly? Was data evaluated statistically?
Discussion: Is the conclusion supported by the data
