Guidelines for writing abstract
  • TITLE OF PAGE: The abstract title is printed in CAPITAL LETTERS, with the exception of scientific names which should be upper/lower case and italicized (see example). Scientific names should not be preceded or followed by commas or parentheses or other markings.
  • AUTHOR(S): The first name should be the presenting author. Use * after the presenting author. Type in upper/lower case.
  • ADDRESS AND EMAIL: Type only the presenting author's institution, address and email. Type in regular upper/lower case.
  • MAXIMUM LENGTH: One page
  • PAGE SIZE: Standard A4 paper (210m x 297mm = 8.27' x 11.69') (portrait)
  • MARGINS: 2.5 cm margin throughout(left/right/top/bottom)
  • SPACING: Single spaced
  • PARAGRAPHS: Paragraphs should be separated by a blank line and should not be indented.
  • FONTS: Character fonts should be 12 point type.
  • FIGURES & TABLES: Photo, figures and tables are highly recommended and they may be in color. They should be reduced to the appropriate size for a one page abstract and should be clearly readable at the reduced size. The reduced figures and tables should be included in the abstract.
