Poster presentations will be scheduled in one of two slots from\n 10:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. each day. Selection of a poster presentation at the time of submission indicates that\n you are only interested in presenting your work in this format. The Program Committee will not designate any\n abstract submitted for poster presentation as an oral presentation.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n

ABSTRACT CATEGORIES<\/h1>\n

Authors are required to select whether their abstract relates to the Basic and Translational Sleep and Circadian Science<\/em> track or the Clinical Sleep Science and Practice<\/em> track when submitting their abstracts. The APSS Program Committee reserves the right to move abstracts between tracks and categories as it sees fit.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Basic and Translational Sleep and Circadian Science
\n<\/strong>This category includes basic research on the fundamental aspects of sleep and circadian science from animal models to humans as well as translational research on fundamental mechanisms to understand disease and discover treatments.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

e.g. Phase 1 trials, studies on healthy populations, etc.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>
