For this years conference we are calling for abstracts for thematic poster and spoken presentations. Awards will be given for the best in both categories. These may include reports of clinical audit, research, innovation in practice, or evaluation of clinical processes and systems. Previously published or presented work is also welcome. Further to this we will also welcome case studies and clinical reflections. The abstracts will be judged on specific criteria (listed below) by an independent panel. Authors of the three highest scoring abstracts will be invited to deliver a spoken presentation, and will have an opportunity to publish in the Nursing Times. All authors of accepted abstracts will be required to make a short informal presentation of their work at their posters during judging; therefore at least one of the authors must be registered at the conference.
