Call for late breakers
A second call for late breaker abstracts will be open from 9-23 September 2026. Late breaker abstracts may be eligible for both oral and poster presentations. Abstracts initially submitted for the regular programme and rejected are ineligible for late breaker consideration, unless the rejection was due to the absence of critical data at the time of submission.
To be eligible, the abstract must fulfil all the following criteria:
- Report on acute urgent public health problems OR contain novel, surprising findings.
- Report data or information that was unavailable before the deadline for submission in the general call for abstracts for ESCAIDE (18 May 2026).
- Has not been published before.
Abstracts should be submitted in the form of text via the abstract management platform (hosted by Ex Ordo). The link to the platform will be available on the ESCAIDE website between 9-23 September 2026. Guidelines for late breaker abstract submissions are now available at the link below.
