Symposium Proposal

The 3rd Congress of Asian Society of Sleep Medicine (ASSM 2021) will be held from May 14-17, 2021 in Beijing, China.


As the scientific centerpiece, symposia topics will have a strong impact on the success of the meeting. With the call for symposia we welcome all delegates of ASSM to contribute to a high-level scientific program by proposing a symposium for the ASSM 2021.

Please refer to the following symposium guidelines:

Symposia dealing with all areas of sleep medicine research are invited, and should be focused on a single topic that is relevant and scientifically excellent. Each symposium presentation should have an integrative nature, forming a whole which is much more than the mere combination of the individual oral presentations. Submission shall be done in English.

The standard time allocated per symposium is 90 minutes. There should be one chairperson and four or five speakers to ensure that there is adequate time for a short introduction and a comprehensive final discussion. At least 20% of the total allotted time should be devoted to questions and answers, or to group interaction. Note that at the time of your proposal submission, all speakers must have already agreed to participate in the symposium.

Deadline for submitting a proposal is April 1, 2021. All submissions will receive a confirmation email within 3 business days. 

All symposia proposals will be reviewed and selected by the ASSM 2021 Scientific Committee. Submission delay or inappropriate forms will not be considered. The committee’s decision on acceptance of the submission will be final.
