Resident Submissions
- You must be an ACP member to submit an abstract. Residents must be a member and DUES must be current to submit via the Abstract Submission Page. If you need to join ACP, make sure to do so a few days before you try to submit via the Abstract Submission Links. It will take a few days for ACP to have you in the membership database. We are not able to extend the deadline for those who are not up to date in the membership database by the submission deadline. Join ACP by clicking the following link: https://www.acponline.org/membership/residents
- You must be an ACP Resident/Fellow Member in an approved IM or Med/Peds Residency Program to submit and the work that is submitted must have been completed during residency. There is no category available for individuals who have graduated from medical school but have not yet been accepted to a residency program.
- Please DO NOT submit an abstract unless you are able to attend the meeting. Specific presentation times will be shared once your work has been accepted, but the dates of poster presentations are Friday, October 23, 2026, 12PM-1:30PM and Saturday, October 24, 2026, 4:45PM-6:45PM. Oral presentations will be held on Friday, October 23, 2026 from 1:30PM-3:00PM. You will be assigned a day after your work has been accepted for presentation.
- You may submit as many as four abstracts. However, only one abstract per resident has the possibility of being accepted.
- If you worked on an abstract with a resident or medical student, it is important to ensure that it is only submitted once. Please clarify with the author team who will submit as the first author (which will determine whether submitted to the medical student or resident category).
- When you submit a resident abstract, we would encourage you to consider your submission for either an ORAL or POSTER presentation; however, the website allows you to select a preference for poster only.
- After you submit your abstract, you will receive a confirmation email from ACP. If you need to revise your submission, please use the link included in the email to do so. If you do not receive an e-mail, your submission did not go through, and you should contact info@acpmichigan.org
- In an emergency, a co-author listed on the work may present, but for a resident submission the presenter must also be a resident and included in the abstract submission as a co-author.
- The first author must be the individual that is logged in to submit the abstract and will present the work if accepted. If the first author is unable to present, the onsite presenting author will be the only one eligible for prizes and will be listed as the “Presenting Author” when abstracts are published with others listed as “Additional Authors”.
- You may not withdraw an accepted abstract without the permission of your program director and the Governor of the Michigan Chapter ACP.
- Word Limit – 500 words. This does not include title of abstract or author information.
- Resident/Fellow Members cannot be the only author on an abstract. You must have an attending co-author on your abstract and you should discuss with your program leadership whether there is an internal process for review of your work prior to submission as well. If you do not list any co-authors your abstract will not be considered for review. Co-authors must review and approve your abstract before submission.
