The New York City Epidemiology Forum (NYCEF) invites the submission of abstracts for consideration for oral or poster presentation at the 2023 annual conference to be held at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, on Monday, June 5, 2023. The goals of the conference are to exchange knowledge regarding epidemiologic studies performed in and around the New York City area, to stimulate discussion and to encourage collaboration among institutions. Although both senior and junior investigators are encouraged to submit abstracts, we particularly encourage submissions from junior investigators, postdoctoral fellows and graduate degree students.
Abstracts will be reviewed by members of the Scientific Committee. Abstracts may not present previously published work, but prior presentations elsewhere is acceptable. Preference will be given to abstracts that include results (may be preliminary or final). We will also consider abstracts of work in progress.
