Abstract submission
Deadline for registration and abstract submission:
the 29th of November 2022.
Within maximum five working days since completing the on-line registration, each registered participant will receive an e-mail confirmation for the participation in the congress. In case you don’t receive the e-mail confirmation, please contact the congress organizing committee at the following e-mail address: czga2022@antipa.ro.
The organizing institution will publish a volume in English, which will include the abstracts of the papers selected by the scientific committee, as well as the Congress programme. This volume has its own ISSN.
Papers may be presented as oral communications or as e-posters and the participants are allowed to choose one of these variants. In case the oral communications are too numerous (in comparison with the available time), Scientific Committee and Organizing Committee has the right to propose some of these papers to be presented as e-posters. The authors of the respective papers will be announced in due time. Oral communications must be made using a PowerPoint-like software package. For each paper it will be allotted 15 minutes for the presentation. The oral talks will be pre-recorded and sent to us, but we will also organize recording sessions for those willing to do it with our help. Since the online schedule will be very strict, it is extremely important that each oral contribution will fit in the 15 minutes time frame. A live 15 minutes questions session will follow after three oral presentations. E-posters will be made in pptx or pdf format, at an appropriate resolution. The posters will have an 1 hour live session each day, where each author can interact in a private chatroom with the participants. For the PowerPoint presentations as well as for e-poster presentations the English language is mandatory. Also, the oral presentations will be made only in English.
There will be two keynote talks each day of 45 minutes followed by a 15 minutes questions session.
The participants interested in publishing in the journal Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle „Grigore Antipa”, edited by the organizing institution, can send the papers to the editorial staff, following the instructions available on the journal’s web-site travaux.pensoft.net . The papers will be accepted for publication only after an international peer-review process. This journal, with a tradition of over 50 years, is abstracted and/or indexed in: BIOSIS Previews (BIOSIS – Thomson Reuters Science Products); Zoological Record (BIOSIS – Thomson Reuters Science Products); SCOPUS; AGRICOLA (National Agricultural Library); AGRIS; CNKI Scholar (China National Knowledge Infrastucture); CNPIEC; EBSCO Discovery Service; Google Scholar; J-Gate; Microsoft Academic Search; Naviga (Softweco); Primo Central (ExLibris); Summon (Serials Solutions/ProQuest); TDOne (TDNet); WorldCat (OCLC).
