 ABSTRACT SUBMISSION SYSTEM IS NOW CLOSED 


 

As you may have anticipated, the IAFMHS Executive Committee has decided that our 2021 conference must move to an entirely virtual format. The conference will be held  June 16 - 17 and will include a mixture of pre-recorded presentations with live (via Zoom) Q&A. The conference theme will be "Past, Present, and Future of Forensic Mental Health Services". 


The Call for Submission is now closed. Our Scientific Committee and reviewers are now working hard to review the submissions. All accepted presentations will be notified by April 24 and need to be pre-recorded and submitted by May 15.  All prerecorded "papers" will be limited to 15 minutes in length and posters will be 5 minutes in length (no more than 5 slides for posters); Symposia and Roundtable presentations will be limited to 45 minutes in total presentation time, leaving room for 15 minutes discussion. Due to the limited "spots" for presentation, attendees will be limited to a maximum of ONE (1) submissions. This does not include co-authorship, only first authorship/presentations. Attendees can be included as co-authors on an unlimited number of submissions, but will only be able to submit a maximum of ONE presentation as the first, or corresponding, author.
