GUIDELINES
ISPOR is strongly committed to diversity. The Society’s Strategic Plan and core values embrace excellence through encouragement and acceptance of diverse ideas, cultures, and disciplines. Research submissions are encouraged from all stakeholders and are evaluated based on merit. ISPOR also aims to reflect the diversity of its membership in all endeavors and encourages consideration of diversity in abstract submissions. Diversity dimensions include (but not limited to) gender, career stage, ethnicity, race, education, sexual orientation, region/geographic location, physical disability, and religion. Additional information can be found at the Society’s Diversity Policy.
ISPOR is interested in content related to the conference theme "HEOR: Advancing Evidence to Action". The following featured areas are encouraged, but not required:
- Application of HEOR results for effective decision-making (regulatory, policy, clinical decision-making and patient interactions)
- Effective evidence communication approaches
- Experiences with digital evidence application for decision-making
Case studies and other examples of these featured areas of research are welcomed.
- Abstract submissions are invited for Research abstracts, Issue Panel proposals, and Workshop proposals.
- All research abstract, issue panel proposal and workshop proposal submissions and presentations must be in English.
- All research abstract, issue panel proposal and workshop proposal submissions and presentations must not promote any product or service.
- Registration is required for all presenters.
- Expenses associated with submissions and presentations are the responsibility of the presenter.
- The presenters of research are required to disclose financial support. Abstract review will NOT be based on this information.
