Writing an Abstract for a Scientific Conference
Simkhada P, van Teijlingen E, Hundley V, Simkhada BD
Abstract: For most students and junior researchers, writing an abstract for a poster or oral
presentation at a conference is the first piece they may write for an audience
other than their university tutors or examiners. Since some researchers struggle
with this process we have put together some advice on issues to consider when
writing a conference abstract. We highlight a number of issues to bear in mind
when constructing one’s abstract.
