Call for Abstract Reviewers
Deadline to Volunteer: October 16
We invite interested current INSAR Full and Early Career Members (including Post Docs)
to volunteer as reviewers for submitted abstracts. This helps the Scientific Program Committee shape the program for the INSAR 2026 Annual Meeting. We need reviewers in all areas of expertise.
Reviewers will need to be available to review abstracts during: October 27 - November 10, 2025.
This is a tight window of time but ensures that notifications of acceptance occur in a timely manner prior to the meeting. *Panel reviews will be due November 3, 2025.
Abstract reviewers will be chosen:
- Based on their expertise;
- To maximize strength in different areas of expertise;
- Depending on the number of abstract submissions.
Interested Full, Post Doc and Early Career (Must be a current INSAR Member) should register online (link below) by October 16, 2025.
Student and Affiliate members are not eligible to be reviewers.
Review volunteers need to complete the online form including citations for (2) publications in peer reviewed journals related to autism research within the past 3 years.
Note: To ensure that reviewers are assigned abstracts within their area of expertise, reviewers will be asked to choose a topic area and keywords within that topic area. Reviewers may register for multiple topic areas although this will result in a larger number of assigned abstracts.
To register for multiple topics (up to 3), you need to repeat the online registration for each topic area you would like to review.
