Call for Abstracts

The Abstract Submission process is now over.

All individuals interested in plant diagnostics are invited to submit an abstract for consideration as a poster presentation at NPDN 2016.

During the submission process, you will be asked to identify the most applicable topic for your abstract. However, abstract submissions are not limited to these topical areas as we want to capture all emerging topics and new ideas critical to plant diagnostics, so there will be an option to describe your own topic if it does not fit into these broad categories.

Potential topics for posters include:

  • Advancing Diagnostics to Meet Plant Health Needs: NPDN Partnerships and Projects
  • Emerging Pathogens and Pests
  • NPDN’s Role in Advancing Diagnostics
  • Novel Methods to Improve Prevention, Detection, and Diagnosis for Food Security and Trade

Abstracts must be submitted online. Scroll down to submit your abstract now.
