The abstract should include the following sections: Title, author(s), presenter(s) and a description (maximum of 250 words) of the background, methodology, findings and impact/conclusions. Presented work is expected to follow a scholarly and methodological process (please refer to this presentation for more information http://casn.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/3OverviewofBoyersModelSA.pdf).
