F.A.Q.
-
How do I become a member of ISZB to pay the reduced registration fee?
Becoming an ISZB member is simple! Please click on the following link and follow the instructions there. https://www.zinc-net.com/ISZB.html#membership
-
How do I transfer from the Merida Airport to the Conference venue?
Answers coming soon; if you have other questions please write to us at iszb2024@cinvestav.mx
-
Can I stay longer in the same venue?
Yes, the Hotel respects the same (reduced) price for the rooms for 3 nights prior to the meeting and 3 nights after it ends.
-
Will there be published conference proceedings?
There will be a special issue from the official Journal of ISZB, the Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, open to all registered attendees. Submissions will open in October 2024 and close in May 2025. There may be other special issues advertised at the meeting, but the abstracts will not be published separately.
-
How can I pay my registration fee?
During your registration you will be asked to choose between payment by credit card (which opens automatically the ability to submit your abstract) or through a direct bank transfer, where you will be asked to send by email proof of payment and the organizers will enable your access to the abstract submission system manually after they confirm receipt. Please note that for international payments the credit card system only accepts VISA or MASTERCARD.
-
How do I submit an abstract for a presentation?
Once you register to the meeting, you get a link to pay the fees and once payment is settled, you get a link to submit title and abstract of the work you wish to present. At this point you can indicate the sessions to which your work fits best and whether you prefer a poster or oral presentation.
