Dear Colleague,

Society of Fetal Medicine encourages participation of all members through presentations at all its conferences, congresses and webinars. SFM FetalMed 2026 is an excellent opportunity for you to present before the entire audience. This can be done if your research/ work is selected for presentation. For this, you have to submit an abstract that will be peer reviewed. If selected, this can be part of the main congress. Please do not miss the deadlines.

• All abstracts have to be submitted through the official Congress Website www.fetalmed2026.com.
• There are four categories:
• A traditional research paper for oral presentation
• A Just Images case for oral presentation
• Electronic Poster
• A Just Images case for electronic poster
• Each abstract should consist of a “formal” word file and a 5 slide ppt for research papers & 1 slide ppt for e poster/ just images.
• All abstracts will be anonymised and peer reviewed by an independent set of judges. Abstracts that score the highest will be included in the main Congress program.
• All the presenting authors need to register. You may register in advance to save money before the early bird deadline. In case your abstract is not accepted, your registration will be refunded.

1. LANGUAGE: The abstract must be submitted in English
2. ABSTRACT WORD LIMIT: The abstract body should be limited to 300 words and 20 words for the title of your submission. You will be advised of your character count usage throughout the submission process as you save and move to the next step.

Poster authors will be sent detailed guidance on how to do this, once their abstract is accepted. Posters will be made available electronically for delegates to access during the Congress.
14. By submitting an abstract, you authorize Society of Fetal Medicine to record your presentation (if accepted). All or a portion of presentations, discussion, question and answer, comments, documents and presentation slides presented will be recorded and may be selected for inclusion on the event platform, website, On Demand web portal for members, YouTube & social media. These may also be used for promotional purposes.
