SGIM Submission Policy
If the submission has not been accepted or published before the SGIM submission deadline, it remains eligible. Unfortunately, if it has already been accepted or published before the deadline, it would not qualify. Proposals still under review at the time of the SGIM submission deadline, even if later accepted or published before the meeting, are still eligible for presentation.

Volunteer to Peer Review
Reviewers are an essential part of the abstract acceptance process. We ask our reviewers to read and score submissions, ultimately helping the committees decide whether to accept them. The review period will start on November 20, 2026, with final scores due to SGIM on December 8, 2026.
You do not have to be an SGIM member or a part of the region to review. This reviewer volunteer opportunity is open to faculty and fellows only. Residents should wait to apply until their training is complete.
