    2. Material - The abstract must contain original material, not published or presented at an international congress (national congresses are allowed) prior to the 11th International Geneva/Springfield Symposium on Advances inAlzheimer Therapy. Only abstracts in English will be accepted.
    3. Incorrectly prepared abstracts will not be considered for presentation. Submit the abstract only once. The abstract will be published as submitted.

    5. Abstracts will be peer-reviewed by members of the Organizing Committee.
    6. Speakers abstracts will be published as a supplement to Neurobiology of Aging and a copy of the supplement will be handed to all participants, upon registration, at the 11th International Geneva/Springfield Symposium on Advances in Alzheimer Therapy.
