*****************************************************************
See below for details and requirements for BSGAR 2024 Interesting Cases and Poster Presentation submissions at the 2024 BSGAR Annual Meeting in Glasgow!
Interesting Cases Session and Derrick Martin Prize
The session is one of the annual highlights of the BSGAR meeting and is usually heavily oversubscribed. The quality of submissions and presentations has always been fantastic, and in 2024 we expect the Derrick Martin Prize to be as hotly contested as ever!
Please submit an abstract of your case as a three slide PowerPoint presentation using the following format:
• Slide 1: Cover slide – case title, authors and affiliations
• Slide 2: Text slide – case synopsis and final diagnosis (250 words maximum)
• Slide 3: Figures slide – up to 4 annotated images
The best 10 cases submitted will be invited to present at the Annual Meeting on Friday 2nd February 2024 and offered publication on the BSGAR website. Accepted case authors will be asked to produce a live 4-minute presentation, to present at the meeting in Glasgow (full details will be provided after acceptance).
The Derrick Martin Prize will be awarded for the best interesting case presented by a trainee. The winner will receive a prize of £200 in John Lewis vouchers. The Interesting Cases Session is also open to Consultants, but they are not eligible for the Derrick Martin Prize.
Research Showcase Session - Oral presentations, e-Posters and Prizes
We were delighted with the feedback we received on the poster presentations, and these will continue into 2024.
• We will accept abstract submissions from both Consultants and trainees, although Consultants are not eligible for the prizes. These might be audit and quality improvement projects, education projects, technical developments, scientific reports or educational exhibits.
• Please ensure the type of submission is indicated in the brief description section of the upload form provided via the link to be provided.
• Abstracts should be submitted as a Word document and include the Title, Authors and Institutions above the body of the abstract.

• Accepted abstracts will be invited to present e-posters (to be displayed as a number of slides so details can be read clearly online) at the BSGAR Annual Meeting in Glasgow via e-display boards (full details will be provided after acceptance).
• The top-rated e-poster abstracts, scored by a BSGAR sub-committee, will be invited to present their scientific report as an oral presentation at the Research Showcase Session at the Annual Meeting in Glasgow on Thursday 1st February 2024 (full details will be provided after acceptance).
