Instructions to contributors

Presentations at ISAA 2010 will be by platform presentation or as posters. The selection of platform presentations will be made by the ISAA 2010 committee based on preliminary abstracts received. All persons giving platform presentations must submit a paper for publication in the Proceedings. All papers will be refereed, and included in the published Proceedings on CD, as also will poster abstracts and prepared posters (as pdfs). A copy of the Proceedings CD is included in the cost of attending ISAA 2010, and will be distributed to delegates at the Symposium. Additional copies will be available for sale via the ISAA Society Office. A Book of Abstracts (to include both papers and posters) will be provided to all delegates at the Symposium

 

Topics

Presentations at ISAA 2010 are restricted to topics as listed on the ISAA 2010 website.

 

Exchange of information and ideas

All papers will be reviewed by an international panel of experienced referees. Papers are expected to conform to the ISAA Society’s objective of providing a non-commercial, scientific platform for the exchange of information and ideas regarding the development, testing and application of adjuvants for agrochemicals and related topics.
