    I was selected to make an oral presentation.

    • Any one who is accepted, which has not yet happened, will have to register. You should know by the end of this week whether you have been accepted.

  4. I am not able to submit online at the link http://abstracts.acs.org/
    it says “Please select the program area in which you would like to submit your paper” and after that nothing comes up for selection

    • The selection for program area is a drop down menu, if you are attempting to do this on an mobile device, it may not work, at least on my iPad it doesn’t. Try going to a regular computer and try again.

      • Same thing occurred to me as to Krishnan. No drop down menu was appeared.

      • When you sign in to the PACS system and select SERMACS 2011 you will be prompted to create a submission. Then, you are taken to the screen asking you to “Please select the program area in which you would like to submit your paper”. Double click on the folder that says RM_SERMACS and you will see the whole list of symposia.

  5. what time is the deadline on the 20th?

  6. Is the deadline sep 20 including the day, or before sept 20 (like sep 19th midnight….)?

    • Deadline extended to midnight Sept 23.

  7. It seems the abstract submission is already over. But here it says ‘September 20- Last day for Abstract Submission.’ I was not able to complete the submission. Is there any way to still submit the abstract?
    Thanks in advance!

    • Abstract submission was extended due to an error with the system. Please try again to submit your abstract.

  8. When I try to submit an abstract it says “Please select the program area in which you would like to submit your paper”, however, there are no drop-down menus or options available. I have tried this on three different browsers in a Windows 7 operating system. Is there an alternative procedure to submit my abstract?

    • Greg,
      When you sign in to the PACS system and select SERMACS 2011 you will be prompted to create a submission. Then, you are taken to the screen asking you to “Please select the program area in which you would like to submit your paper”.

  10. I have been trying to submit my abstract no luck. It is almost midnight so not sure what to do. When I put the abstract body and push save nothing happens. I have also tried next and submit but no luck.

  11. I submitted an abstract for poster and when would you notify me whether it was accepted or not? Since I have to plan a trip to richmond and I need to know ASAP.

  12. Hi,
    I submitted my abstract successfully on Sep 23/11, but I have not yet received any confirmation by e-mail. How can I know my abstract is submitted successfully? and accepted?
