ISAD Events platform

Abstract submission process

Abstracts are accepted via this online submission system only (email submissions are not be accepted):

One (submitter) can submit one or many abstracts on our platform with its personal account.

• Submissions by Agents:
  Agents are permitted to submit abstracts, provided the author creates an account (mandatory: with work or personal email) for subsequent communication after the adjudication process. The agent will serve as the primary contact and must ensure constant availability for any requests at all time and (please provide a second contact in the message box for vacation time).
• The submitter warrants having the full power, authority and capacity to submit the abstract and agree to these terms and conditions.

An acknowledgement of receipt by email of each submission will be sent automatically to the submitter’s mailbox upon completion of the online submission, and to the presenting/corresponding author(s).

• Submitters may modify their submission(s) until the deadline: late or incomplete submissions will not be accepted.
• The official language is English only.

Statement of Responsibility for Authors

Read carefully all the agreements to accept at the end of the submission form (condition of acceptance, publication authorization, statement of responsibility).

• All authors agree to comply with the abstract submission and presentation rules.
• The author(s) confirm that the presentation is based on scientific and/or clinical methods that are ethical and valid ; all co-authors must agree with the submitted results and conclusions, and consent to being listed as authors.

Encore presentations
and submitted abstracts to other International meeting/publication

• Starting in 2026, Encores can be submitted: We encourage to submit one with updated study/data and a detailed information on previous or parallel submissions. Encore cannot be published in the book of abstracts.
• Encore Declaration: Ticking the Encore checkbox is strictly mandatory for any data previously presented or published elsewhere. Discovery of an undeclared encore abstract will result in immediate disqualification of the abstract and a retraction from any digital/print indices.

Abstract format

Abstract submissions will be reviewed for presentations (in-person on location only, no remote oral presentation will be possible) in one of three formats:

1. oral presentation in plenary scientific sessions
2. oral presentation in break sessions
   5 minutes + 2 minutes Q&A during the breaks, on one of the screens of the presentation booths
3. slideshow with no oral presentation
   available only on displays and online for attendees

Every effort will be made to accommodate formatting requests based on space and themes. By default, all accepted abstracts are subject to be scheduled at least as an on-display slideshow. However, all presentation formats (including slideshows/displays) require the presenting author to be registered for in-person attendance. This ensures that if the Abstract Review Committee evaluates the work and decides to upgrade it to an oral session, the presenter is available on location to deliver it.

Participants may select one or multiple presentation formats. Please be aware that if an oral presentation in a plenary session cannot be accommodated due to space or thematic alignment, the abstract will be accepted as a presentation in a break session unless otherwise requested.

Abstract topics

All abstracts submitted must address one of the conference topics for inclusion in the program. The list of available topics when submitting an abstract is:

• Innate and adaptive Immunity
• Exposome, Microbiome, and Environment
• Mechanisms of Disease and Animal Models
• Atopic Dermatitis in Diverse Skin Types (Skin of Color)
• Pediatric and Adolescent AD
• Complications, Comorbidities, and Comparative Dermatology
• Epidemiology and Global Health Outcome Research
• Systemic and New Biologic/JAK Therapies
• Topical Treatment and Phototherapy
• Integrative Medicine & Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
• Precision Dermatology, AI, and New Technologies
• Itch, Prurigo, and Neuro-dermatology
• Multispecialty & Holistic Approach (Nursing, Psychology, Nutrition)
• Corporate and Pharmaceutical Perspectives
• Other

Each abstract content must be described accurately with 2 or 3 keywords from the provided list in the form.

All selected abstracts will be reproduced exactly as submitted and substitutions will not be permitted. They must be proofread very carefully before submitting.

Abstract adjudication

A “blind” selection process will be used: abstracts will be peer-reviewed and ranked by ISAD Scientific Committee members.

Notice of abstract adjudication will be provided (check Call for abstract acceptance notification date) and all correspondences will be addressed to the submitting contact by email only, unless otherwise requested.

Deadline for registration of presenting authors

For any abstract submitted by an agent or co-author, the final, designated presenting author must create an ISAD account and confirm their attendance details by ---------------. Unconfirmed or unlinked presentations will be automatically removed from the final program.

Presenting authors not registered on time (check Registration deadline for presenting author) will forfeit both their invitation to present and have their abstract included in the conference platform. Changing presenters to another author is allowed prior to this date but a non-author can not present on behalf of the authors.

Request for change of presenting author must be made in writing to callforabstract@isad.org

Presentations

Oral presentations

Oral presentations will take place on location, in real time during scheduled sessions (check the Program here). Remote presentations are not possible.

Slideshows with no oral presentation (on screens only):

As every presentation, they will be available online via the virtual conference platform.

Instructions for all

➜ Check this page to prepare and send your presentation before the deadline.

Presenter Limit

To ensure diverse scientific exchange, each registered in-person delegate may be designated as the presenting author for a maximum of two (2) accepted abstracts. If an author or company has more than two abstracts accepted, additional co-authors must register in-person to present them.

No-Show Policy

While an unresolvable travel conflict may result in an oral presentation being demoted to an "on display" slideshow, the in-person registration requirement remains mandatory. If no registered co-author is on-site in Beijing to oversee the display/booth queries, the slideshow will be completely removed from both the physical venue screens and the online platform.

Cancellation of presentation

To prevent empty presentation viewing, please inform us by e-mail (cf. contact presentation below), if you are unable to present.
