Additional Policies

Submitted abstracts or cases must be original and should not have been published in any journal, online platform, or presented at any prior international congress.

Submission or presentation of previously published material will result in:

  • Removal of the presentation from the Scientific Sessions
  • Restriction from submitting abstracts to any ARIS Congress for a period of one year

Any duplicate submissions identified will be withdrawn from all associated ARIS scientific sessions and publications.

By submitting your work to ARIS 2027, you agree to the use of author names, affiliations, and biographical information in relation to the publication and dissemination of your submission.

While the intellectual content remains the property of the author(s), submission of an accepted abstract constitutes agreement to grant ARIS the rights to edit, format, publish, reproduce, distribute, and create derivative materials such as press releases and educational content.

All accepted abstracts will be published online in the Annual Meeting Supplement of IJARIS. Following presentation at the Congress, authors retain the right to incorporate their work into future publications, provided such use does not suggest endorsement by ARIS.

The submitter further grants ARIS 2027 the rights to record, film, reproduce, and utilize the work or its presentation in any format or medium, including permission to use the author's name, likeness, and biographical details for educational and promotional purposes.

During submission, you will be required to confirm the following:

  • I confirm that I have reviewed this abstract and that all information provided is accurate. No modifications can be made after final submission.
  • Submission implies consent from all authors for its publication on Congress website, program materials, and promotional platforms.
  • I declare that the content submitted does not violate any third-party rights, including intellectual property rights.
  • I grant the Organizers a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, and non-exclusive license to use, reproduce, publish, translate, distribute, and display the content across any media.
  • The presenting author must be registered for the Congress.
  • The Organizers reserve the right to withdraw any abstract that does not comply with submission guidelines.
  • The Scientific Committee retains the authority to reassign the abstract to a different theme or topic if necessary.
  • I confirm that consent has been obtained from all co-authors for the processing of their personal and contact information.

WITHDRAWAL

Authors will be informed of the acceptance or rejection of their abstracts on or before 15 January 2027. If an author wishes to withdraw their abstract, they may do so within one week from the date of notification.

NO SHOW

Authors are requested to notify the Congress Office if they are unable to attend and present their abstract. Failure to present without prior written communication to support@aris2027.org before the commencement of the Congress will result in the author being barred from participation in subsequent ARIS Congresses.

Authors of the Top Paper Abstracts are required to submit their full manuscripts to IJARIS, the official journal of ARIS, following the Congress and no later than 30th June 2027. All other authors with accepted abstracts are strongly encouraged to submit their full papers by the same deadline.

All accepted abstracts will be published in an online supplement of the IJARIS Journal. Please note that submission does not guarantee acceptance, as all manuscripts will undergo the standard peer-review process.

Note: To ensure your submission is considered as part of the ARIS abstract category, please select the appropriate option on the submission page within the IJARIS platform.

If an author intends to submit the manuscript to another journal, a formal written request must be sent to support@aris2027.org at least four weeks prior to the Congress, clearly stating the reason and including proof of submission to the alternate journal.

Approval of such requests will be at the discretion of the Editor-in-Chief of IJARIS. In the event the manuscript is not accepted by the alternate journal, it must subsequently be submitted to IJARIS.
