So my question is on eras I have a poster presentation at a meeting, and the abstract is listed online should that be listed as a meeting presentation or listed under online peer reviewed abstract
 
meeting presentation

Agreed. Although some abstracts are themselves "published", an abstract is usually a preliminary step toward something else, be it a poster, a presentation or a publication. So once you get that something else, the abstract ought not be listed anymore. Otherwise, a lot of us with publications/posters/presentations could basically double our list since most bad abstracts accepted first. It doesn't work that way though. You need to go with the last link in the chain.

thanks once again 🙂
 

Well, I don't think you get to list the abstract, even if published, if the work is subsequently published in an article or given as a presentation at a meeting. The abstract is still just the preliminary vehicle and the final destination is what gets listed. It's like a lesser included offense in criminal law. If you charge the guy with murder (an article), you don't get to also charge him with attempted murder (the abstract which preceded the article).

can you list both the meeting presentation and the ultimate publication?

My feeling is that if you are listing the abstract that was published in the meeting supplement issue (as was my case), the abstract and the the presentation are basically two forms of the same submission. If the work that was presented as a poster (and printed in abstract form) later leads to a full length article, I don't think you need to leave out the presentation. If you list both the abstract and presentation, they are really the same thing, and not two separate submissions, like a presentation and an article.

Agree 100%.
