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.
