Programme

Will I be able to present virtually at the Conference?

No, the Bilbao 2026 Conference will be in-person only.

If I chose the poster presentation as my first option, why couldn’t I choose oral presentation as my second option?

Presentation options are hierarchical (oral > pitch > poster > withdraw). If you choose oral as your first option, your second choice may be pitch, poster, or withdraw. However, if your first choice is poster, the only second option available is withdraw.

Why aren’t co-authors listed in the programme?

The conference programme only shows presenters. Co-authors appear in the published Abstract Supplement.

Do I have to register as a presenter?

Yes, all presenters must register. If you do not register, your abstract will be removed from the programme.

Do co-authors need to register?

No, only the presenting author must register.

If co-authors want to view posters/presentations, do they need to register?

Yes, only registered participants can access presentations.

How can I find my session in the programme?

Use the search box in the upper left corner of the online programme – search by your surname. The programme will be published in August.

When do I need to be in my session room?

Be in the room 10 minutes before the session starts to meet the chair and fellow presenters.

Abstract submission

I cannot proceed with submitting an abstract because the system requires an affiliation number.

The affiliation number corresponds to the affiliations you add below the author. You may add up to three affiliations per author, and the affiliation number will range from 1 to 3.

How do I submit an abstract?

You can submit your abstract through the online submission system available on the conference website. The system closes on 1 May at 18.00 CET, after which you will no longer be able to submit your abstract for the 19th edition of the EPH Conference.

I haven’t received confirmation after submitting my abstract.

First, check your spam folder. Submitted abstracts are also visible in your account. If you didn’t receive a confirmation email and the abstract isn’t in your account, your submission failed.
