Research Challenges / Collaboration Elevator
Pitches 

We invite expressions of interest for the ‘Research
Challenges / Collaboration Elevator Pitch’ session at our 9^th Annual
Meeting to be held on October 11^th, 2024.

The Research Challenges / Collaboration
Elevator Pitch session is designed to promote research networking.  It is an opportunity for researchers, academic
educators, healthcare professionals, patients, and others to briefly outline a
specific research challenge and/or call for
collaborators in all fields related to the study of obesity.  We encourage
submissions from across the spectrum of prevention to treatment, including policy
and practice.

Proposed pitches may relate to any stage
of the research process (e.g. pitching a research idea; preliminary research or
consultation; describe a challenge experienced on an existing project / service;
highlight expertise needed for an existing funded study) and evidence of
existing funding is not necessary. 

Expressions
of interest (EOI) should include:

Name / Title / Professional Role (if
relevant) / Organisation / Email address:

Title (max 15 words):

Details on the research challenge or
collaboration pitch (max 150 words)

Submissions will be reviewed by the Conference Organising Committee and four applicants will
be invited to deliver their 3-minute elevator pitch the event.  Details of the research challenge or
collaboration call (as per EOI details submitted by applicants) will
be published in the conference
abstract booklet.  The
abstract booklet will be circulated to all registered participants and made available through the
ASOI website.   Please indicate, during the EOI submission process, if for any reason you
prefer not to have your details published in the book of abstracts.
