Where do you list a published abstract?

Members don't see this ad.

Before asking, I did a search on SDN, and two points were brought up.

A) Is it only published if its officially labeled a "supplemental issue" and not just a conference program?

B) Some conferences are hosted by societies or organizations that also publish their own journals. In several of these cases, they will actually publish the abstracts presented at the conference in an issue of the journal. These are what people refer to as "published abstracts."

So my abstract fits both of these criteria. It is in a "supplemental issue" of the journal "Cancer Research" published by the AACR. -- http://cancerres.aacrjournals.org/

Although this one in particular isn't mine, it is exactly the same type of thing from the same issue: http://cancerres.aacrjournals.org/cgi/content/meeting_abstract/73/8_MeetingAbstracts/SY20-02

From the sample, the citation goes something like:

Eric Martin, Prasenjit Mukherjee, Li Tian, David Sullivan. Discovering tool compounds and chemistry leads by highly accurate kinase virtual screening. [abstract]. In: Proceedings of the 104th Annual Meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research; 2013 Apr 6-10; Washington, DC. Philadelphia (PA): AACR; Cancer Res 2013;73(8 Suppl):Abstract nr SY20-02. doi:10.1158/1538-7445.AM2013-SY20-02

I have three other "real" publications. Although this research is a lot smaller than those, I wanted to list it too somewhere. Should I put it in the publication section and clearly mark it as abstract or somewhere else? Thank you.

I'm not sure about your field in particular, but I have one section on my CV for publications and one for presentations. Any paper I have published in a journal goes in the "publications" section and anything presented at a conference (and included in the proceedings) is listed in my "presentations" section. Not sure if that's helpful...?

Maybe look at a faculty member's CV in order to get an idea of what's common in your field.

I would choose the Publications designation. If your citation doesn't include the word "Abstract" then state it elsewhere.

lol omg classic SDN: "I have 3 "real" pubs, but I'm worried about where to list my abstract because I want to get allllll of my research recognized."

No need to look farther than this to find why SDN has such a bad rep on the street about its neuroticism..

If you're talking about AMCAS it can be listed as a publication but to save space it might make sense to just mention it in another section if you have other, more substantial pubs.

If you're talking about your own cv you should have separate sections for full articles and abstracts. Look at your PI's or a similar CV and copy their format.

Yeah. Seriously, I don't think anyone cares. You checked off the research & publication boxes.
