THE GREEN FELLOWS ONBOARDING SESSION

WRITING AND PRESENTING A WINNING ABSTRACT

An abstract is a concise summary of a research paper, article, or presentation. It provides an overview of the main points, including the purpose, methods, results, and conclusions. The abstract serves as a critical component of a conference submission, as it allows reviewers to quickly assess the relevance and quality of your work. The accepted word count for an abstract typically ranges from 150 to 250 words.

Tips for Writing a Winning Abstract:

1. Start with a Clear Purpose: Begin by clearly stating the research question or problem your work addresses. Make sure your objective is well-defined and aligns with the theme of the conference.

2. Highlight the Methods: Briefly describe the methodology or approach you used. This section should give readers an understanding of how you conducted your research or developed your ideas.

3. Summarize the Results: Provide a concise summary of the key findings or outcomes of your work. Even if your research is ongoing, mention any preliminary results that support your conclusions.

4. Conclude with Impact: End your abstract by discussing the significance of your work. Explain how your findings contribute to the field and why they are important.

5. Be Concise and Focused: An abstract should typically be between 150-250 words. Make sure every word counts by avoiding unnecessary details and focusing on the main points.

6. Use Clear and Simple Language: Write in a way that is easily understood by a broad audience, including those who may not be experts in your field. Avoid jargon and technical language where possible.

7. Follow the Conference Guidelines: Ensure that your abstract adheres to the specific requirements of the conference, including word count, structure, and submission format.

8. Proofread and Revise: Carefully proofread your abstract for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors. It’s often helpful to have a colleague review it as well.
