Keys to successful abstract submission

The Program Committee of the American Neuropsychiatric Association (ANPA) will accept submission of abstracts of previously presented and published works, including previously published abstracts. All abstracts accepted for presentation at the ANPA meeting will be featured in a subsequent issue of ANPA’s official journal, the Journal of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences. Thus, in addition to submitting abstracts that adhere to formatting specifications and a 250-word limit, authors electing to submit previously published abstracts are responsible for ensuring that submission to ANPA adheres to the copyright policy and use provisions of the prior publisher.
