ABSTRACT SUBMISSIONS

SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW CLOSED!

The National Collaborative for Education to Address the Social Determinants of Health (NCEAS) invites abstract submissions from academic and professional communities for the virtual 2025 NCEAS Annual Conference.

We welcome submissions in the following three categories: education, research, and clinical/policy innovations. Abstracts should highlight topics relevant to social determinants of health (SDOH) and/or health disparities and may include in-progress work, completed projects, position papers, or descriptions of completed or ongoing innovations. The aim of the poster session is to facilitate dissemination of research and innovations to the broader community of educators and healthcare professionals addressing social determinants of health.

Abstracts should cover topics relevant to SDOH or health disparities and should align with the conference aims listed below. Example topics of interest include (but are not limited to) training curricula, screening and assessment tools, and case studies.

The NCEAS conference committee will select the top evaluated abstracts to present at the oral session. The remainder of the abstracts will be considered for the poster session

If you submitted an abstract, decisions will be sent out by December 13th.

The aims of this conference are to:

  • Discuss how healthcare delivery is responding to changing expectations around SDOH and provision of social care.
  • Share innovations to advance health professions education on SDOH and social care.
  • Disseminate current research, resources, and best practices related to SDOH in clinical care and educational practices.
  • Identify collaborative and interprofessional strategies that address health equity.
