Abstract+

Are you interested in increasing your online discoverability in the chemistry community? Would you benefit from having your conference abstract publicly available as a record of participation in CSChE 2025?  

Abstract+ is an initiative created by the CSChE to increase public access to research. By selecting the Abstract+ option in your registration, your accepted abstract text will be included in the conference archive.  

Fee: $25 CAD per abstract 

*Opting into Abstract+ does not guarantee abstract acceptance to the conference. No refund will be provided if an abstract is not accepted. 

Refunds and Cancellations

Written cancellation must be received by the CSChE no later than Aug. 28, 2025 at 11:55 PM ET to qualify for a refund. Please email CSChEConference@cheminst.ca. A $50 CAD administration fee will apply. After Aug. 28, 2025 there will be no refunds.

After Aug. 28, 2025, there will be no refunds or changes to registration, including banquets, receptions and other non-technical program-related activities.

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING VISA-RELATED REFUNDS:

While we recognize the necessity of visas for international travel, we are unable to control visa application processing times. Therefore, refunds for conference registration fees due to visa delays will not be granted beyond the refund deadline.

Refunds will only be issued for REJECTED visa applications and you must send us official government-issued proof of the rejection. We provide a full refund (subject to a $50 CAD + tax cancellation fee) if notified before the conference commences. If the conference has already taken place, a 50% refund will be offered for rejected visa applications received up to two months from the conference date.

Attendees requiring visas are encouraged to apply well in advance to ensure timely processing.

Registration FAQ

We encourage you to take advantage of our early-bird registration fees to register by Aug. 28, 2025, at 11:55 PM ET. By registering in advance of this deadline, you will ensure a smooth transition into the event, receive all relevant information for the event, and save!

CSChE 2025 will not have a hard registration deadline; general attendees will be able to register at any time leading up to and throughout the event at a higher rate after the early-bird deadline, which is Aug. 28, 2025 at 11:55 PM ET.

Written cancellation must be received by the CSChE no later than Aug. 28, 2025 at 11:55 PM EDT  to qualify for a refund. Please email CSChEConference@cheminst.ca. A $50 CAD administration fee will apply. After Aug. 28, 2025 there will be no refunds.

Abstract+ is an initiative created by the CSChE to increase public access to research. By selecting the Abstract+ option your accepted abstract text will be accessible and visible in the CSChE 2025 conference archive indefinitely. Past conferences’ scientific programs can be accessed through the Archived Conferences webpage.

You can select to participate in Abstract+ through your registration.

Throughout CSChE 2025, the scientific program will include all abstract text of accepted abstracts regardless of selection of the Abstract+ option.

As a non-profit organization, we take pride in offering our services to the community at the lowest cost possible and our registration rates are no exception. Facilitating an in-person event requires:

  • A dedicated staff to organize an engaging and exciting event;
  • A convention center space to house the many concurrent sessions in our busy technical program; and
  • An event platform that allows for an all-inclusive and value-adding experience, including an intuitive interface for scientific content.
