Further information about submissions
Abstract tool: An account for the abstract tool is required to make a submission. You can create an account free of charge in the first step. If you already have an account on our platform m-anage, for example from the DCK 2022, 2023, or 2024 you can use the login data for this again.
Abstract template: You can download the Word template for the abstract in the abstract tool either during the submission process or here. The headings are in English, but you can of course insert the German text of your abstract here. Please note that the abstract must not exceed 750 words (including the bibliography).
Language: Abstracts can be submitted in either German or English. The lecture language is German, except for international sessions and international speakers. You will find out whether your abstract will be placed in an international session in December 2024 at the latest. The language in the presentation must be same as the lecture language.
Type of presentation: You can submit your abstract as an ePoster (presentation in the form of Rapid Communications in DCK.digital from 18. – 20. März 2025) or as lecture (presentation in the form of Rapid Communications in DCK.digital from 18. – 20. März 2025 or as an open lecture at the DCK from 26. – 28. März 2025 in München) or as a video (presentation in DCK.digital from 18. – 20. März 2025 or at the DCK from 26. – 28. März 2025 in München). The final decision on the form in which your abstract will be presented will be made by the professional societies.
Publication: Accepted English-language abstracts will be published in Innovative Surgical Science.
