Abstract Submission

Upcoming Dates

  • January 2025 - Abstract submission opens

  • March 6, 2025 - Oral Abstract deadline

  • May 15, 2025 Poster Abstract deadline

Thank you for your interest in presenting. The contribution of presenters is critical and we value your input greatly. Scientists in academia, government, industry, and others working in the field of metabolomics are invited to submit abstracts in the following scientific themes:

  • Metabolomics and Lipidomics in Health and Disease
  • Plants, Food, Environment and Microbes
  • Technology Advancements
  • Computational Metabolomics, Statistics & Bioinformatics

All abstracts will go through peer-review and will be selected by the Metabolomics 2025 Scientific Organizing Committee. To ensure a diverse range of contributions each participant may only submit one abstract as "presenting author" while participants may be listed as co-authors on multiple abstracts. You'll be asked to select a theme and sub-topic from the list below.

Abstract Guidelines
  • Abstract titles should be short, but descriptive.
  • Abstracts should be no longer than 300 words.
  • The submitting author will receive an email confirming receipt of the abstract and will be responsible for notifying all co-authors of the submission.
  • If you do not receive a confirmation e-mail after you submit, your abstract HAS NOT BEEN RECEIVED. Contact info@metabolomicssociety.org for assistance or revisit the form to make sure you completed all pages and hit “Submit”. 

Peer-review Procedures and Deadlines
  • Oral abstract submission deadline is March 6, 2025. 
  • Poster abstract submission deadline is May 15, 2025.
  • All abstracts will be reviewed by the Scientific Committee.
  • Abstracts constituting sales pitches for products or services will not be considered.
  • Announcements of selected abstracts will be made mid-April, 2025.
  • All presenters must register online for the conference. Oral presenters must register (and pay) by May 12, 2025 to secure your agenda spot;  poster presenters must register (and pay) by June 1, 2025.
  • Complete instructions for oral and poster presentations will be provided upon notification of acceptance.
  • Posters will be available to view online 2 weeks prior to the conference.
  • You can only submit ONE abstract as the presenter.  (Either poster or oral/poster, not both)

Abstract Scoring
The Committee has clear criteria for reviewing and scoring each abstract. You can view the guidelines and rubric below. Keep in mind that all abstracts must be relevant to the Metabolomics Society conference and cannot contain obvious marketing content.
