You are responsible for presenting your summary at the scheduled time. If you cannot present your summary, a qualified and knowledgeable substitute should be selected by you to present the summary at the scheduled time. Failure to do so without proper cause and notification may result in your summary being withdrawn from the TRANSACTIONS and restrictions of future presentations. Before the meeting, inform the ANS Program Specialist and/or the Technical Program Chair of any changes in the status of your presentation.
