Abstract Reviewers

Scientific abstract reviewers and session chairs play an essential role in shaping a cutting-edge BMES Annual Meeting program. With your expertise in one of our 18 tracks, we invite you to participate in helping us feature the best research in the BME field at BMES 2024. 

General Abstract Reviewers

To select the highest quality abstracts for presentation at the meeting, knowledgeable reviewers are essential. Reviews are conducted online through our new abstract submission system, and each submission will have three assigned reviewers to reduce bias. Training on this abstract system, reviewing abstracts, and submitting scores will be non-cumbersome to reviewers. 

REQUIREMENTS:
To serve as an abstract reviewer, you must:

• Be a current BMES member

• Hold a faculty position or work in industry

• Have obtained postdoc status

Note: Student and non-BMES members are not eligible to act as an abstract reviewer. Your form will be compared to your membership profile in the system for verification.
