e-Health26 Call for Abstract Committee

e-Health26 Conference and Tradeshow is accepting applications for the Abstract Committee. Are you interested in volunteering? Your participation is extremely important to the success of the conference in Halifax!

Key Responsibilities:

Abstract Reviewers for the e-Health26 Conference and Tradeshow are responsible for reviewing abstract submissions and rating them for inclusion in the concurrent sessions section of the 2026 conference program.  Once the abstract review process is complete, it becomes the responsibility of the 2026 e-Health Staff and Program Committee to map out the full conference program with the objective of finalizing an interesting, cohesive and educational conference program experience.

The members of the Abstract Committee are responsible for the following tasks:

• Each reviewer shall be responsible for reviewing and rating up to 40 abstract submissions
• While abstract submitters’ names are not included in the reviewer documents, each reviewer shall declare any conflict of interest they may have (i.e., client/colleague project that is identifiable)
• Each reviewer shall complete their 40 submissions within the timeline outlined by the e-Health Conference Director
• After the abstract reviews are completed, committee members (eight reviewers in each group) will participate in virtual wrap-up meetings to group the rated submissions by topic and theme to develop a draft Program for the e-Health26 Conference. Each reviewer must participate in one of the five virtual wrap-up meetings
• Abstract Reviewers are not responsible for contacting/confirming any presenters directly

Time Commitment:

• The Abstract Committee will meet two times, beginning in October, until the Abstract Review period ends on November 28, 2025
• Meetings will take place over Zoom and will be up to one hour in length
• Meeting attendance is mandatory
• Reviewing submissions will take a minimum of 10 hours
