You will first need to create an account on the system, or log in if you have used the system before (for example, for ECE 2026). See ‘How do I create an account’ question below.
All abstracts must be submitted via the online portal. We are unable to accept any abstracts via email.
No, it is free to submit an abstract to ECE 2027. However, a condition of submission is that the specified presenting author will need to register and pay to attend the Congress.
Fees and further information is available on the registration page.
Please note your abstract will be removed from official publication if the presenting author does not register for ECE 2027 to attend in person if you are accepted for Oral Communications, Rapid Communications or physical Poster, or online if accepted as an ePoster.
No, abstract submission is open to ESE members and non-members of ESE.
However, there are many benefits to becoming an ESE member, including fantastic opportunities for networking and collaboration as well as access to educational and scientific opportunities including funding and a wide range of grants and awards. There are also reduced registration fees to attend ECE 2027 for ESE members.
To find out more about becoming a member of ESE and joining our community of over 5000 members please see our Membership page.
No, you can submit your abstract without registering for ECE 2027 first.
However, if your abstract is accepted at least the specified presenting author will need to register and pay to attend the Congress. You will be notified of acceptance or rejection in March 2027, before the Super Early Bird registration deadline, so you will still be able to take advantage of the lower registration fees.
Fees and more information is available on the registration page.
Please note your abstract will be removed from official publication if the presenting author does not register for ECE 2027 to attend in-person if you are accepted for Oral Communications, Rapid Communications or physical poster, or online if accepted as an ePoster.
Yes. There are two options for registration at ECE 2027, allowing you to attend either virtually or in person in Basel.
You must choose ‘ePoster’ as your preferred presentation type, as this will not require you to attend to present a poster in person, but you must still register online.
A condition of abstract submission to ECE 2027 is that at least the specified presenting author registers and pays to attend the Congress, if their abstract is accepted.
Please check that this is possible before submitting your abstract. More information on registration can be found on the registration page.
Any person submitting an abstract and not attending will be automatically excluded from future ECE Congresses and their abstract will not be published.

There are no formatting guidelines for abstract submissions to ECE 2027 so you are able to structure your abstract in any way that you like.
Abstracts must be submitted in English and should not contain your abstract title or author list, as these will be added separately.
You must use the template that you can download from the abstract submission portal to upload your abstract text.
There are no formatting requirements for abstract submissions to ECE 2027. We have therefore left the template blank for you and the downloaded template is the correct one.
You are able to provide email addresses for all authors of your abstract, but you must provide a valid email address for your listed presenting author.
This will be used to contact the presenter regarding uploading presentations or posters, if your submission is successful.
If an email address is not provided, the submitter will be automatically contacted to upload presentations or posters, if your submission is successful.
Please note that by providing an email address, you are confirming that you have the author’s consent to share their contact details.
Please note: authors can be listed as the presenter on a maximum of three (3) abstract submissions.
Firstly, please check that you have not exceeded the maximum word limit (400 words), and that you have at least one word as a minimum word count.
Occasionally, the upload tool gets stuck, even if your abstract complies with all of the upload rules. This is usually because too many people are submitting at the same time.
In this case, please try to upload a couple more times. If this still does not work, please save your work and try to upload again later.
If you are still unable to upload, please send your abstract text (using the template) to the ECE 2027 Congress Team at ece2027-abstracts@interplan.de, for them to upload on your behalf. Please make sure to state your name and submission number so that we can easily find your abstract.
Occasionally, the preview on the Summary page glitches and is not visible. To make sure your abstract has successfully uploaded, please check the Upload page.
If it has a green tick, your document has been successfully uploaded and you can proceed to submit or save your work. You can then download your abstract document from here to check that it is the correct version, rather than being able to see the preview.
Submission confirmation emails are sent straight away. Please check your spam/junk folders in the first instance if it doesn’t arrive in your inbox.
If it still hasn’t arrived, please contact the ECE 2027 Team at ece2027-abstracts@interplan.de, stating your abstract submission number and name.

You will be notified of acceptance or rejection in March 2027, before the Super Early Bird registration deadline: 31 March 2026 (23:59 CEST), so you will still be able to take advantage of the lower registration fees.
Please note that if your abstract is accepted, the specified presenting author must register and pay to attend the Congress. If you are accepted for Oral Communications, Rapid Communications or a physical poster, in-person registration is necessary. If you are accepted as an ePoster, online registration is sufficient.
You will be notified of your abstract’s acceptance or rejection in March 2027. This notification will be sent to the email address that you used to submit your abstract.
Accepted abstracts will be presented in the following ways at ECE 2027:
Oral Communications
Authors will be asked to present their research live on stage and delegates will have the opportunity to ask questions.
Please note you will need to attend in person to present in this way.
Rapid Communications
Authors will be asked to submit a pre-recorded presentation of their poster which will be played on screen and all presenters will be invited on stage for a joint live Q&A session.
Please note you will need to attend in person to present in this way.
Physical Poster
Successful authors will be asked to bring a physical poster to the Congress to display in the poster exhibition area. We also ask authors to upload an ePoster which will be added to the ECE 2027 virtual platform for our online audience to view.
Please note you will need to attend in person to present in this way.
ePoster
Authors will be asked to upload an ePoster which will be displayed on screens in the exhibition hall. ePosters will also be available to view online during and after the Congress.

If you select “Oral” or “Any”, your abstract will be considered for an Oral Communication, Rapid Communication, physical poster or ePoster presentation
If you select “Poster”, your abstract will be considered for a physical poster or ePoster presentation only.
If you select “ePoster Only”, your abstract will be considered for an ePoster presentation only.
Please note that the ECE 2027 Programme Organising Committee will make the final decision on the presentation types of all abstracts.
Yes, a list of posters being displayed each day and all the available ePosters will be available in the ECE 2027 Poster Handbook which can be downloaded from the online Congress Bag on the Congress Platform when it opens.
In addition to over 1200 ePosters, all the physical posters displayed at ECE 2027 will have an electronic version. You will be able to find a full list of Posters and ePosters in the ECE 2027 Poster Handbook which can be downloaded from the online Congress Bag on the Congress platform when it opens.
You can view the ePoster Gallery by logging into the Congress platform (when it opens) or by visiting the ePoster screens which are located on Level 2. The ePoster Gallery will be accessible throughout the Congress and afterwards on ESE On Demand.

Yes – all abstracts will be published in a supplement of the European Journal of Endocrinology (EJE) - 29th European Congress of Endocrinology Abstract Supplement – a fully open access and citable collection of all the abstracts presented at ECE 2027. There is no printed abstract book, but they will be available to read online or as a downloadable PDF.
Yes! We encourage our abstract authors to submit their work as full papers to scientific journals. ESE only holds copyright on accepted conference abstracts, so you are able to write a full paper to submit to another journal.
Your abstract should not be published in an academic journal at the time of submission, but can be published thereafter (before or after the Congress).
We strongly advise against submitting the same abstract to another conference concurrently, as if both are accepted then each conference’s copyright may be breached upon publication. It is worth checking this with the other conference before submitting.
If you do continue to submit, we would advise re-writing the abstract or adding in new data.
Encore abstracts are accepted at ECE Congresses, as long as copyright held by another event, conference or congress, is not breached. However, we strongly advise re-writing or adding more data to your abstract before resubmitting.
If your abstract has been presented at another conference or event within Europe, your abstract will only be considered for a Poster or ePoster presentation by the Programme Organising Committee.
If your abstract has been presented at another conference or event outside of Europe, your abstract will only be considered for Oral Communication or a Poster presentation by the Programme Organising Committee.
If you are submitting an encore abstract to ECE 2027, please ensure that you indicate this in the relevant section of the submission form.
Your abstract should not be published in an academic journal at the time of submission, but can be published thereafter (before or after the Congress).
By submitting your abstract, you are assigning copyright of the abstract text to the European Society of Endocrinology and the Publisher, Oxford University Press (OUP).
If your abstract is rejected or you withdraw before the withdrawal deadline, copyright will transfer back to you.
For any other queries, please contact the ECE 2027 Team at ece2027-abstracts@interplan.de.
