WGO Abstract Assistance Service

Welcome to the Abstract Assistance Service of WGO's Clinical Research Tools

The goal of this service is to develop a helpdesk that will assist in improving the quality of abstracts submitted to meetings such as DDW or UEGW by gastrointestinal researchers in developing countries. By improving the quality of the abstract it is anticipated that the acceptance for presentation at the meeting will also be increased. Unfortunately we are not able to provide support for abstracts submitted to other meetings.

It is anticipated that this service will provide researchers with the following:

English language spelling and grammar corrections,
Formatting into the accepted standard for the individual conferences.

The service will not:

Provide or change any scientific content
