A necessary prerequisite for the abstract approval is the payment of the participation fee by at least the author who will present the work, no later than August 20, 2024. It is reminded that each author has the right to present only one work, although they may participate in multiple works.

The abstract should not exceed 250 words, written in Arial 11 cpi (characters per inch) font fully justified. The abstract should be submitted in a doc/docx format (word) file. Typing Instructions for (word) file:
1. The title of the abstract in UPPER CASE
