Types of papers accepted Scientific paper presentations are limited to 20 minutes each plus 5 minutes for Q&A during the program and should be a minimum of 600 words. Special attention will be given by the Educational Programs Committee to material with practical content or new information.
How-to papers are limited to 15 minutes each plus 5 minutes for Q&A and are presented to describe and explain a technique or procedure used in veterinary medicine or the equine industry. The technique should be relatively new or not widely understood or used in practice. There is no word limit for how-to papers.
Review papers are limited to 20 minutes each plus 5 minutes for Q&A and are presented to update the membership on a new subject or to gather information that may be conflicting. Although a review paper does not nec- essarily contain original data, it is anticipated that the presenter will have considerable experience in the field.
Abstracts ≤ 250 words are limited to 20 minutes plus 5 minutes for Q&A. Authors who intend to publish in a refereed journal may submit an abstract ≤ 250 words. An abstract conforming to the AAEP instructions for authors must also be submitted (for review purposes only) to allow the reviewers to assess the experimental design, materials and methods, statistical analyses, and results (with graphs, tables, charts, etc.) and to discuss the results as they pertain to interpretation and conclusions.
The Business of Practice papers may cover any business management topic that can help the practitioner and their practice achieve more success and improve profitability.
Need help submitting a paper? As an aid to private practitioners, first-time authors or members seeking guidance with their submission, AAEP offers a mentorship program in which experienced presenters are available to provide advice and direction. However, mentors are not responsible for rewriting or selecting material. For a list of available mentors, visit
