1. The first thing to do is to register on the aaarabstracts.com site if you don't have an account with us. (If you already have an account, please skip the registration step). The username for the site is your email address. This email address will also be used to inform you about the acceptance of your abstract.
2. Then, you login to the site.
3. Answer a few questions related to your abstract.
4. Make sure to hit ”Submit“ at the end of the process to ensure your abstract is submitted.
No, you do not need to register again. To make the process faster, we have kept active registered users on the system. Proceed directly to log in.
No problem. You can reset your password here. The system will immediately send a new password to the email address associated with the account.

The submission process is basically the same as in the previous year. The AAAR board of directors instituted a change in the abstract process several years ago, where all submissions require an abstract submission code. Please see further clarification below explaining why a submission code is required. Each AAAR member will be given a code for one free abstract submission to the AAAR Annual Conference. Codes are transferable, so they can be gifted or traded. Additional abstract submissions will cost $50 each.
Every year there are people who submit abstracts and then do not come to the meeting. This leaves gaps in the program, costs AAAR money and reduces the opportunities for attending members to share their research.
By March current AAAR members (including student members) were emailed an abstract submission code to be used for one free abstract submission. Each specific abstract submission code can be used only once. If you misplaced the email with your submission code, please contact info@aaar.org.
Abstract submission codes are transferable, so they can be gifted or traded. For example, coauthors can let you have their abstract submission codes if they have not already been used.
Alternatively, if you are a student and your adviser will not be using his/her free abstract submission code, ask if you could use it. Or ask another AAAR member not using his/her abstract submission code to share it with you.
You can purchase as many abstract submission codes as needed on the AAAR site. Each additional abstract submission code costs $50. You will receive the additional abstract submission code via e-mail immediately after the purchase has been completed. We strongly advise you to purchase additional abstract submission codes prior to any other submission step and in advance of the submission deadline. Go to the AAAR site to purchase a code with enough time to account for any delays in processing. Purchase the abstract submission code. Receive the abstract submission code. Start the submission process with abstract submission code in hand.
For the time being you can use the abstract submission code 0000-0000-0000-0000. Your abstract will be stored for seven days to allow you to obtain a valid abstract submission code. Purchase your additional abstract submission code here. Receive the abstract submission code electronically after the purchase. Update your abstract within five days. Note that abstracts with no valid code seven days after submission will be removed from the database.
Log in to the abstract submission site. Once you are logged in, click on ”My AAAR“ in the top navigation bar. You will see a list of the abstracts you have submitted with the abstract submission code 0000-0000-0000-0000, which the system is temporarily saving for you.
