Abstract Submission Guidelines
Thank you for considering speaking at one of ILCA's 2008 conferences!
Every year, ILCA members and others in the lactation community have the
opportunity to share their insights and research with colleagues through concurrent
sessions. The annual conference enables ILCA's Conference Committee to recognize
those whose expertise and presentation skills qualify them for this honor. ILCA
appreciates these contributions toward ensuring a successful program. Speaker
Guidelines are available on the ILCA website at 2008 ILCA Conferences. Please
review the guidelines before you submit your proposal.
ILCA will cosponsor two conferences in 2008. The ILCA/USLCA conference will be
held July 23–27 in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. ILCA will also cosponsor a conference
with the European Lactation Consultants’ Association (VELB), on October 1–3, 2008
in Vienna, Austria. When the Las Vegas site closes, the site will reopen for the
Vienna conference. At that time, you will have the opportunity to resubmit your
abstract if you wish to be considered for the Vienna conference as well. The
submission site for Oral Research and Poster Presentations will open on January 2, 2008.
Please note that speakers are limited to submitting two abstracts per conference.

The Speaker Submission site will close on November 1, 2007, at which time
the Conference Program Committee will begin their blind review of proposals.
