Prof. Mahadevan Award Session

For any ASI member, who is not a post graduate / super specialty student.

Minimum five papers should have been received for the session to be conducted.

Case reports should not be considered.

Case series (more than five cases) may be considered.

Vijayanagara Rural Surgeon's Award Session

Minimum three papers are required.

If there are no specified entries, the session may be converted into a lecture session.

If papers are not received, talks from surgeons to address the issues like providing better service with limited resources, setting up infrastructure, improving outcome, cost cutting, bailing out, which cases to avoid, facing complications etc. should be a priority.

Free Paper and Poster Session

Free paper session is the heart of the conference. It is an opportunity for the common delegate, a budding surgeon or a postgraduate to showcase his/her work. Great significance is to be given to this activity and these sessions should be encouraged.

Constraints of time and space are real. To overcome this, parallel sessions can be held, avoiding overlap during orations, symposium, and panel discussion.

Oral presentations are allotted for well-studied series of cases or original research. Case reports are to be put up as posters. Use of evidence-based discussion, statistics, and prospective studies are to be encouraged. If time is a constraint, even series of cases done as a retrospective study can be asked to go as a poster.
