The PSA policy regarding multiple submissions to PSA2018 and presenting no more than once on the main program does not apply to poster abstracts. Main program participation and poster forum presentation are not mutually exclusive. A presenting author on a contributed paper or participating in a symposium may also submit one poster abstract on a substantially different topic. If the abstract is accepted\, then the author may present (or co-present) the poster at PSA2018.
