Papers relating to recent research into any aspect of equine internal medicine will be considered. It is not allowed to submit abstracts on (parts) of research projects that have been previously published, or presented nationally or internationally prior to the ECEIM Congress 2022.

Abstracts will also be published in the proceedings of the ECEIM congress. Submission of the abstract constitutes the authors consent to publication. Presenters of accepted abstracts must register for the Congress by the early-bird deadline and attend the congress to present their abstract. Presenters who are unable to attend the congress should arrange another person to present the paper, and notify the organizing committee.
