European Pediatrics Congress Conference-Abstract Peer-review Process/Guidelines

Ciencie Meetings Group and the organizing committee members of European Pediatrics 2024 ensure a rigorous, high-quality, and unbiased peer review process for all abstracts submitted to the conference. The decision of abstract acceptance will be judged by a panel of expert reviewers and/or session chair and/or conference chairman emphasizing whether the findings and/or conclusions are novel and make useful contributions to the field.

The committee will determine whether the abstract is more appropriate for oral or poster presentations. Eligibility for oral or poster presentations will be determined by the total score (with adjustment for differential scoring behavior between referees).

The committee operates a single/double-blind peer review process for all the abstracts submitted, where both the reviewer and the author remain anonymous.

The following are the steps that each abstract of World European Pediatrics undergoes during the process of peer review:

üAll submitted abstracts are reviewed by the internal editorial team to ensure adherence to the conference scope and abstracts which have passed this initial screening are then assigned to the session chair/review committee for evaluation.

üThe session chair/review committee decides whether reviews from appropriate independent experts/reviewers are needed to evaluate the abstract. External reviewer (s) evaluate the majority of the submissions, but it is up to the session chair/review committee to determine the number of reviews required.

üOnce the reviews have been received, the session chair/review committee decides to accept or reject a manuscript, or to request revisions from the author in response to the reviewers’ comments. If the decision is a minor revision or major revision, authors will be given 14 days to resubmit the revised abstract.

Abstracts submitted by invited and/or keynote speakers will be reviewed by the conference chairman.

Criteria to be Considered for Scoring

The abstract should be reviewed according to the following criteria:

ü  Originality of concept/approach and level of innovativeness

ü  Significance/impact/relevance to the conference theme

ü  Quality of research design/theoretical argument

ü  Conclusions and interpretations of results

ü  Presentation style: coherence and clarity of structure
