Now Accepting Student Poster Abstracts
Bring your undergraduate and graduate students to the ACHNE APHN 2023 Joint Conference to share their work in the student poster session. Students are invited to submit abstracts on any topic related to Community or Public Health Nursing.
Student Abstracts will be accepted for ePosters only. Student abstracts are limited to 250 words. Submissions must list up to three (3) measurable, educational objectives for your presentation, using only one (1) verb per objective. Authors will also need to identify which conference objective(s) the abstract addresses and classify the focus of the abstract. Authors must also provide a list of references within a five-year time limit. Objectives and References are not included in the abstract word count. The lead author will enter the names, degrees, credentials, and institutional affiliations of each additional author. All authors are required to complete Conflict of Interest questions (answers collected when the author's information is entered into the abstract collection system). This information is required by our CE provider and must be provided in order to complete an abstract.
ACHNE and APHN have a long history of collaboration focusing on mutual topics of interest that strengthen each organization's mission. Simply put, we recognize we are Stronger Together. To that end, we are pleased to announce the objectives for the 2023 ACHNE APHN Joint Conference.
The call for abstracts is now closed. Decisions will be sent to all abstract submitters before January 30, 2023.
