FINAL Paper Submission Instructions
If your paper is accepted, then you must revise your paper according to reviewers comments and upload the final paper (as an IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF file) through your Papercept account by March 1, 2023. You need to take these steps:
A) Symposium registration: Before paper upload, make sure you have registered for the symposium (1 paper upload per student registration and up to 2 paper uploads per full registration are allowed).
B) Prepare your camera-ready paper: Use the IEEE templates (MS Word or LaTex) to create your source document. Use US letter and not A4. The paper material (including text, figures, tables, acknowledgement, etc.) must fit into 6 pages, while there is no page limit for the bibliography/references section (n pages). Do not add page numbers to your paper.
C) Upload your camera-ready paper: After the above steps, go to PaperPlaza to upload your final, IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF file to ISMR 2023.
Digest Slide
Please prepare a one-page PowerPoint slide that summarizes your paper and upload it with the final submission. You must only use the ISMR 2023 Digest Template. Please do not change the template. Keep fonts and font sizes as prepared in the template.

Initial Paper Submission
The 2023 International Symposium on Medical Robotics (ISMR) accepts full paper submissions. All papers must be written in English and submitted electronically in PDF format via PaperPlaza by November 15, 2022 December 1, 2022.
The page limit for each submission is flexible. However, the paper material (including text, figures, tables, acknowledgement, etc.) must fit into 6 pages, while there is no page limit for the bibliography/references section (n pages).
Papers exceeding the (6+n) page limit at the time of submission will be returned without review.
Authors should prepare their papers based on IEEE templates from instructions found here. Please use US letter.
All submissions will be peer-reviewed. Depending on the outcome of the review process, each accepted paper will be chosen for either an oral or a poster presentation. All accepted papers will be published in the symposium proceedings. All accepted AND presented papers that follow the IEEE format will be included in IEEE Xplore.
Note that a student registration fee covers only one accepted paper to be uploaded for inclusion in the symposium proceedings. A full registration fee covers up to two accepted paper uploads, provided the registrant is an author on both papers.
