ABSTRACT SUBMISSION 

Upcoming Dates: 

  • January 2023 - Abstract submission opens

  • March 13, 2023 - Oral Abstract deadline - Now Closed

  • March 28, 2023 - Notifications of early-acceptance or rejection for all "Oral or Poster" abstracts 

  • May 16, 2023 - Poster Abstract deadline - Now Closed

  • UPDATE!  All posters have been notified of acceptance. If you didn't receive your e-mail notification, contact us and we will resend to you.  

Thank you for your interest in presenting. The contribution of presenters is critical and we value your input greatly. Scientists in academia, government, industry, and others working in the field of metabolomics are invited to submit abstracts in the following scientific themes:

  • Metabolomics in Health and Disease
  • Plants, Food, Environment, and Microbes
  • Technology Advancement
  • Computational Metabolomics, Statistics, and Bioinformatics
  • Mental Health, Drug Addiction, and Medical Cannabis

All abstracts will go through peer-review and will be selected by the Metabolomics 2023 Planning Committee. To ensure a diverse range of contributions each participant may only submit one abstract as "presenting author" while participants may be listed as co-authors on multiple abstracts. You'll be asked to select a theme and sub-topic from the list below.


The deadline to submit an abstract was May 16.

2023 EMN AWARD

The 2023 EMN Travel Award aims at providing support to Early-Career scientists* to attend and actively participate in Metabolomics 2023 in Niagara Falls, to promote their professional development. The Metabolomics Society strives to promote diversity, inclusion, and equality; therefore, we highly encourage applications from low- and middle-income countries.

Read the complete announcement and terms here.

Complete the application and upload the requested documents. You also need to submit an abstract online, no later than March 13. (Deadline extended from March 6)
