  Submitting an Abstract to ASENT

  Deadline: October 27, 2025 at 11:59PM ET

  The Abstract Review Committee is committed to presenting the best in neurotherapeutic research at the ASENT Annual Meeting. All abstracts are evaluated by experts in neurotherapeutics according to the following criteria and overall merit:

  1. Scientific or clinical impact
  2. Quality of data, analysis, and presentation
  3. Relevance to the discovery and/or development of neurotherapeutics and inclusion of novel targets or new initiatives.
  4. Abstracts must be submitted, presented, and cited in English.

  The abstract should describe original research broadly relevant to the goal of ASENT, which is to encourage and advance the development of improved therapies for diseases and disorders of the nervous system. Please check your abstract carefully for typographical errors, misspellings, etc. Be sure to include data results.
