Abstract Review Process
To assist the Conference Secretariat in
sending written confirmation of receipt of
your abstract, please be sure to fill out the
Abstract Receipt Confirmation Card in
the "Forms" section of this booklet.

When this card is returned to you, it will
include your abstract number.

Abstracts will be evaluated by reviewers
from around the world. Each thematic
track is governed by a Track Committee
composed of international experts in the
field. Recommendations from each reviewer will be forwarded to the Track
Committees, and final decisions will be
made by a committee composed of the
Track Co-chairs; the Conference Chair
and Co-chairs; the Co-chairs for Science,
Impact/Response, and STDs; a representative of the World Health Organization;
and a representative of the International
AIDS Society.
Accepted abstracts will be assigned to
oral presentations, poster sessions, or
publication in the Abstract Volume on
the basis of merit, subject matter, and
number of abstracts received. Every effort
will be made to place abstracts in appropriate categories.
Presentation
Authors whose abstracts are accepted
will be expected to attend the Conference
and present their papers in person. In
general, those whose abstracts are accepted for oral presentation should prepare ten minute presentations, while
those presenting posters will be assigned
specific times to be with their posters to
discuss their work. More complete instructions on how to prepare your presentation will be sent to you with the
confirmation of acceptance. If you have
not received these instructions by 15 May
1992, please contact CONGREX Holland BV at the address listed below.
Abstract Volume
Abstracts of all oral papers and posters to
be presented at the Conference will be
distributed to registrants in the Abstract
Volume of the VIII International Conference on AIDS/Ill STD World Congress.
The volume will also include abstracts
which the Conference was unable to accept for presentation. In order to increase
its usefulness to delegates, this year's Abstract Volume will include the name, ad
dress, telephone number, and FAX number of the presenting author when such
information is made available to

CONGREX Holland BV. Additional copies of the Abstract Volume will be available for 145 Dutch Guilders each.
