Call for Abstracts
MNA 2025 Annual Meeting
Research Competition 

Submission deadline: Monday, March 31, 2025

Attention All Massachusetts Medical Students, Neurology Residents and Fellows,

The Massachusetts Neurologic Association invites you to submit an abstract for presentation at the Annual Meeting to be held on Saturday, April 26, 2025 (8:00 - 1:30 PM) at the Royal Sonesta in Cambridge, MA. 

COMPETITION

It is expected that authors whose abstracts are approved would attend the entire meeting and be present at their poster during the periods when it is being judged.

The top 3 scores will receive an award certificate and a $250 cash prize. More details will be included in the acceptance letters.

CLINICIAL VIGNETTE or RESEARCH

Your abstract may be either a clinical vignette or research. A clinical vignette is a report of one or more cases that illustrates a new disease entity or a prominent or unusual clinical feature of an established disease. It may include a summary of pertinent patient history, physical findings, laboratory data, or management description. A research submission can report clinical and/or laboratory-based research, delineate a new investigation into mechanisms of disease, or consist of a detailed review of a clinical problem. Abstracts concerned with efficiency, cost or method of health care delivery, quality of care, and medical decision-making are also encouraged. 

ABSTRACT ELIGIBILITY

Original abstracts that either have or have not been presented at other meetings will be considered. Abstracts are eligible if they have been published; however, proposals based upon full papers that have been published are not eligible.
