What is a Corresponding Author?

If a paper has two or more authors, the corresponding author is the one who will be the primary contact for any communication with the conference secretariat and/or the section or working group the abstract was submitted to. There can be only one  corresponding author per abstract.

What is a Presenting Author?

A presenting author is an author who will present the paper at the Lyon conference, if it is accepted. Normally there will be only one presenting author but under no circumstances can there be more than two.

If you are submitting to OCP23 only the category of Presenting Author is not used and you can ignore it.

How do I submit a proposal for a panel?

A panel proposal is made up of several individual submissions and some supplemental information. The several individual proposals must be submitted through the ExOrdo submission platform. Get all the details and submit the supplementary information here.
