Integrated Care Call for Abstracts

Innovations
These posters will comprise practice-based developments from the field that report on recent experiences in the management and development of chronic disease and/or health and social care networks. All innovations posters will be show-cased in the ‘innovations village’ . Awards will be presented to the ‘best’ innovations paper on each day of the conference as selected by an independent panel chosen by the conference organisers.

Research
These posters will provide the results, completed or in-progress, of original research projects. The material should not have been published elsewhere, except in preliminary form, and it should be ready for publication as a journal article. Papers related to PhD projects, either completed or in progress, are especially encouraged.
