Please refer to the following symposium guidelines:

Symposium dealing with all areas of sleep medicine research are invited, and should be focused on a single topic that is relevant and scientifically excellent. Each symposium presentation should have an integrative nature, forming a whole which is much more than the mere combination of the individual oral presentations. Submission shall be done in English.

Symposium proposals are scored by the Program Committee and by invited experts in the proposal’s specific topic. The criteria are:

• Quality of data
• Innovation
• Diversity (countries, institutions, genders, career level)
• Potential interest of the topic to attendees

The standard time allocated per symposium is 90 minutes. There should be one chairperson and four or five speakers to ensure that there is adequate time for a short introduction and a comprehensive final discussion. At least 20% of the total allotted time should be devoted to questions and answers, or to group interaction. Note that at the time of your proposal submission, all speakers must have already agreed to participate in the symposium.

Symposium proposals will be submitted by email only at secretariat@assm2023-bangkok.com. Deadline for submitting a proposal is JUNE 30^th, 2023. All submissions will receive a confirmation email within 3 business days.

All symposium proposals will be reviewed and selected by the ASSM2023 Scientific Committee. Submission delay or inappropriate forms will not be considered.
