ABSTRACTS & POSTERS 

Submit your abstract or poster for MaMa Conference 2019!

MaMa Conference is an annual midwifery and maternity care event that attracts delegates from not only the UK but from all over the world.
Delegates are mixture of midwives, students, leading clinicians and practitioners, maternity health and support service practitioners from within NHS and private services. Each year we have delegates from at least 10 countries worldwide. 

Use this unique opportunity to be considered to present a paper or poster at MaMa Conference 2019. We had 4 fantastic abstract presenters at the MaMa last year and we hope to receive some great works.
We are really looking forward to hearing from you!

*By submitting your abstract you abide to the Rules and Guidance to Abstracts Submission for MaMa Conference stated below.

Rules and Guidance to Abstracts Submission at MaMa Conference:
 
  • Abstracts authors are invited either as a verbal or visual (poster) presentation.
  • To facilitate peer review, abstracts must be submitted in a structured format comprising 4 sections:
Objectives (50-word limit)
Results (150-word limit)
Approach (100-word limit)
Conclusion (100-word limit). 
Each abstract should be no more than 400 words.
  • The abstracts will be assessed independently and the authors will be notified of the outcome of the assessment within 2 weeks of the submission deadline. The authors are required to confirm they can present at the event no longer than within 7 business days after being notified. In case the author failed to get in touch/confirm with the Organizers within the mentioned 7 business days deadline, the alternative candidate can be chosen.
  • All presenters only attending the conference to present their abstract or poster must register for the conference and cover all related travel and accommodation costs. In case the accepted presenter invites additional speakers to present with them at the Conference, they must have them registered, their Conference attendance paid for and their travel/accommodation expenses covered. All presenters and their additional speakers/groups must be registered by the 1st March 2019.
  • The number of abstracts an author may submit is not limited, however the number of accepted oral presentations is likely to be limited for each presenter. 
  • All pieces of research should be complete by the Conference dates.
  • Accepted abstracts will be published in the MaMa 2019 Programme as well as on www.mama-conference.co.uk.
  • Please do not include the names of authors or organisations into the text of your abstracts to allow for a blind peer review as well as do not include diagrams, figures, tables, pictures or acknowledgements in the text of your abstract.
  • Make sure you have any specific requirements or requests for AV equipment noted when submitting your abstract online.

The Assessment Committee will review the abstracts using the following criteria:  
  • Relevance to the Conference topic
  • Importance of topic
  • Clarity of the aim(s)/research question
  • Relevance of methods
  • Potential interest value or impact of the findings on health outcomes/practice/policy

​Abstracts submitted as oral presentations can subsequently be considered for poster presentations if not accepted for the oral format.

Verbal presentations
The verbal presentations are up to 30 minutes and can be run as main or concurrent sessions of the MaMa Conference. Selected abstracts and authors’ names will be listed at the official Conference web-page (www.mama-conference.co.uk) as well as listed in the Programme.
Please note that the Organisers keep the right to allocate your presentation slot and title in the Programme.


Poster Presentations
Poster presentations will be on display at the Conference on both days. Poster specifications - A1 to A0 format maximum, LANDSCAPE layout.
 
Please do not be upset if your project is not accepted and bear in mind that we often receive more abstracts than our Programme can allow for.
It may not have fitted in this time but we appreciate your effort a lot and encourage you to keep trying!
