- You will notice that in the upper right corner, it will read state: private. This means that only you and site administrators can see your abstract. If you are working with a team, you will want to change that state via the drop-down menu to "public draft" until all people have joined the site. Information on controlling access to your folder will be posted shortly.
- Now that you have a folder you can submit your abstract. Please submit your abstract as a Word document. If you cannot upload a word document please speak with your editor to make sure they will be able to open your file.
