• AMIA Presentation Review

  • Paper - Could potentially submit LIDR White Paper

    • Papers from all areas of biomedical informatics will be considered, with particular emphasis on those that align with the content themes for the AMIA 2025 Annual Symposium. Authors of accepted papers will have 15 minutes to present their work at the symposium including any time for answering questions.

      Papers must not be in press or under consideration for presentation or publication elsewhere. However, authors retain the right to make a pre-print version of the paper available on recognized preprint repositories (e.g., arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv, PeerJ preprints, etc.) or personal/employer websites prior to acceptance for publication

  • Podium Abstract - Could also submit LIDR White Paper

    • The podium abstract format allows for the presentation of cutting-edge unpublished research that the author wishes to reserve publication rights for future consideration or outstanding work previously published in a peer-reviewed journal. Priority will be given to work that has not previously been unpublished or disseminated in other forums. Authors of accepted podium abstracts will have up to 18 minutes to present their work at the symposium including any questions and discussion.

  • Panel Discussion - Dependent upon who from SHIELD Community might be in attendance.

    • Panel sessions are designed to present an integrated set of perspectives or experience on a current topic in clinical research informatics. Panel topics may be on a specific aspect of theory, application, policy, trends, or experience pertaining to any aspect of clinical research informatics, or may provide interdisciplinary viewpoints that cut across traditional themes.

      Panel submissions and final presentations should demonstrate collective reflection and integration of the content presented by each of the panelists, or offer engaged forms of dialogue and interaction between panelists and audience. Scholarly debate among presenters is encouraged, as are panels that incorporate science, practice, and policy themes to improve the conduct of clinical and translational research.

      Panels should be limited to four participants and a moderator, and should be timed to allow one-third to one-half of the session for audience participation. Panel sessions are 90-minutes. An individual may be the moderator of only one panel and may not participate on more than two panels total.

  • Will be prepared to discuss at next Steering Committee meeting.
