Respirology Case Reports Poster Award

We are pleased to present the Respirology Case Reports Poster Award for the second year, at the APSR Congress in Kyoto. This award creates an opportunity for eligible case report poster presenters at the Congress to meet the Editor in chief of Respirology Case Reports and the awardee will get assistance to submit their manuscript to Respirology Case Reports.

All posters presenting a case report or case series will be considered.

A short-list will be selected by the APSR selection committee amongst the authors approved to present a poster and presenting a case report or case series. The final selection will be made by the Editor in Chief of Respirology Case Reports and the selection committee after presentation by the short-listed authors during the "Meet the Editor in Chief" event at the Congress.

The winning case report at the 2019 Congress was accepted for publication and can be seen at onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/rcr2.544

The Award:
  • Offer of assistance by the Editors and Editorial Office of Respirology Case Reports to improve the quality of the actual case report manuscript, if needed, to enhance its chance of acceptance.
  • A waiver of publication fee if accepted.
    Note: Acceptance is not guaranteed by this award as it is subject to the view of the external peer-review and the Editor in Chief as part of the usual peer-review process.
  • Award will be presented at the Congress (to be confirmed).
The Awardee:
  • Must be an author of a poster presenting a case report or case series suitable for Respirology Case Reports.
  • Must attend the APSR Congress and if short-listed, must attend the "Meet the Editor in Chief" event at the Congress, and present and discuss their case with the selection committee and the Editor in Chief of Respirology Case Reports.
  • Must register for the Congress before their individual "cut-off date", and tick the 'case report' box.
    The cut-off date will be provided by the Secretariat after their abstract has been accepted. This date will be earlier than the usual registration deadline, to enable the programme schedule to be compiled and awards to be considered.
  • If selected, the Awardee must submit their case report manuscript to Respirology Case Reports within three months.
