The International Pediatric Transplant Association (IPTA) invites you to share the results of your research and contribute to the excellence of its 6th Congress on Pediatric Transplantation by submitting an abstract to the official collection site.

Submitting an abstract to the 6th Congress of the International Pediatric Transplant Association means that it will be peer reviewed and may be accepted for an oral presentation or poster presentation. All accepted abstracts will be published in Pediatric Transplantation, the official Journal of the IPTA.

Note: You may submit as many abstracts as you wish. IPTA welcomes abstracts previously submitted to other meetings.

Travel Awards

IPTA will award a limited number of travel awards to allied health professionals and trainees/fellows who are involved in a program in which an IPTA member is associated. Awardees will be selected from the pool of eligible applicants based upon the abstract's degree of excellence as determined by the Planning Committee. If your abstract is among the top selected, you will be awarded a $1,000 travel grant.

To apply for these awards, please check the appropriate area in the submission program. The award recipient must present the paper and be listed as the corresponding author. Trainees must include a signed certification with their abstract.
