"Submitted abstracts?"

[Ruban]

Hi all,
Probably a silly question but: on some people's CV's, they have a section for publications, another section on posters and oral presentations, and one on "abstracts."

I did an oral presentation on a topic, and to be selected to give that presentation I sent the organization an abstract. So is what I did an abstract?

Basically, I just don't understanding the meaning of an "abstract." (in the CV sense, not in the general sense).

Thanks!
