ECR Pre-congress Session 2027 Abstract Submissions

Thank you for your interest in submitting an abstract for the ECR-SIG Pre-Congress Session, taking place on Saturday 10 July 2027, from 12:30 to 18:00, at the Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile.

This session offers Early Career Researchers (ECRs) a dedicated platform to present their research and receive detailed, constructive feedback from both peers and senior health economists. We strongly encourage the submission of works in progress, as the overarching goal is to support ECRs in refining and strengthening their research study for potential publication.

If accepted, you will be required to submit a full paper of no more than 20 pages. Each participant will be paired with a senior health economist discussant who will present the research during the session, followed by an opportunity for the author to respond. Papers will also be circulated to all session attendees in advance to foster discussion. Each accepted paper will be allocated a 45-minute slot.

Please complete the following form and provide a 500-word abstract describing the research you would like to present. Abstracts will be reviewed as part of the selection process for the session.

Please ensure that all information is complete and accurate before submitting the form.

Submission deadline: 28 January 2027

We look forward to receiving your submission and welcoming you to the ECR-SIG Pre-Congress Session in Santiago.
Please note that abstracts will only be accepted for work in progress; papers that have already been completed or will be submitted for publication before July 2027 should not be submitted.
