Overview

The IPATH 2024 Annual Meeting is a collaborative partnership between the following organizations: Feonix Mobility-Rising, Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), CBB Transportation Engineers Plus Planners serving as the local host in St. Charles, Missouri and the International Professional Association for Transport & Health (IPATH). Join us for a dynamic transdisciplinary and multisector event to learn about, share and discuss innovative research and real-world best practices in the fields of transportation, urban planning, public health and beyond.

IPATH Annual Meeting Research & Practitioner Abstract Requirements

Research abstracts are limited to 400 words.
All abstracts should describe a real-world study/intervention as opposed to a literature review and a hypothetical application. This means there MUST be a scientific investigation conducted.
DO NOT include citations, graphs, tables or abbreviations.
The use of ChatGPT and/or Artificial Intelligence (AI) is strictly prohibited.
The abstract is REQUIRED to show the human health impacts as it relates to quality of life, health outcomes, or well-being.
Practitioner abstracts are NOT required to be formally organized with research abstract headings. Please refer to the website for details.
The research abstract should be organized with the following headings:

Background - General description and study objective.
Methods - A detailed description of HOW the research was conducted, the methods used to conduct the research study, or the community involved.
Results - The results section must include a formal statistical analysis of quantitative or qualitative research investigation (where appropriate). Hence, robust results should be presented. For quantitative studies, this would usually mean including statistics, such as confidence intervals.
Conclusions - The conclusions should support the results.

IPATH has resources to assist you in writing up a high-quality conference abstract. The Pop-Up Workshops were originally created to help students succeed but we realized that everyone needs a little help now and then.
