Full Title: Rethinking Contact Induced Change Short Title: RCIC

Date: 09-Jun-2011 - 11-Jun-2011 Location: Leiden, Netherlands Contact Person: Esrih Bakker Meeting Email: RCIChum.leidenuniv.nl Subject header: (your last name) RCIC abstract

Please include the following in the body of the email: - Name(s) of author(s) - Abstract title - Contact information: email, phone, fax

Abstract specifications: Maximum length: 500 words or 1 single-spaced page Format: If possible .pdf. Language: English or French.

Put the following information at the top of your abstract: - Title - Category: oral; poster; either oral or poster (please choose) - Name: Give a file name similar to the subject header

Anonymity: Abstracts must be anonymous. Do not put your name or other identifying information on the abstract. Also, please anonymize your file by removing identifying information. Usually this can be done using the following two pull-down menus:

File > document properties > description (remove name of author) View > comments (though an abstract is unlikely to have comments, check this and remove any comments, as they will show your username) View > review tracker (ditto)

You might also check: Acrobat > preferences > identity (to keep your identity off the .pdf, leave all fields blank).

Categories of submission: 1) Individual oral presentation (single- or multiple-author): 20 minutes + 10 minutes for discussion. 2) Poster: One or more poster sessions will be organized, depending on demand. 3) Oral or poster: This means you prefer an oral presentation but would also be willing instead to do a poster. If there are more good abstracts than we can accommodate, a Program Committee will schedule some as posters. If you choose either the ''poster'' or ''oral or poster'' category, you will increase your chances of acceptance.
