Qualified abstracts should address specific issues, approaches, or strategies that contribute to diabetes prevention and control. Priority preference will be given to abstracts that describe crosscutting, programmatic activities addressing public health responses to diabetes.

The abstract submission deadline is September 30, 2008. Applicants will be notified whether or not their abstracts were accepted by December 15, 2008.
