Call for Abstracts
2024 Fall Southeastern Sectional Meeting - CANCELLED
Welcome. There is a multi-step process to successfully submit your abstract. For instructions, please see the list below.
Final deadline for all submissions is Tuesday, August 13, 2024.
PLEASE NOTE: The presenter is required to register for the meeting before submitting an abstract. They must sign in with their AMS account AND be registered for the meeting after clicking "Begin a Submission."
The holder of the AMS account used to log in is required to be registered for the meeting and will automatically be added as the Presenting Author. If they ARE NOT the Presenting Author, they should log in with the AMS account of the Presenting Author. The Presenting Author must be registered for the meeting to submit an abstract.
The holder of the AMS Account used to log in will be able to add other authors, but the Presenting Author role will be locked, i.e. they will not be able to change the Presenter.
Setting Up an AMS Web Account
You do not have to be a member to have an AMS web account. It is free and is used for online business transactions with the AMS. The link to register for a web account or update a web account is
here. You can also find it at the top right-hand corner on most AMS web pages under "Sign in." (See the
AMS Home Page as an example.) Select "Register for a web account" to create an account or "Your account" to update it. The presenter must be registered for an AMS meeting before submitting an abstract.
After you have signed in, proceed with submitting your abstract.
