Submitting Authors: We are experiencing a glitch with our submission system that reorders your co-authors alphabetical by First Name. We are working to correct this and will update you as soon as we find a solution.

If an abstract is not selected for an oral presentation, it will be accepted for a poster presentation. If a panel submission is not accepted, the HCSRN Annual Conference Planning Committee will reach out to the panel participants with the opportunity to submit individual abstracts for consideration for a late breaker session.
