Process for assigning reviews:
Aim for 4-6 reviewers per abstract
Start with specialized categories (e.g., aftercare, rehab)
Fill in more general categories (e.g., QI, pain) later
Balance workload across ~90 reviewers, aiming for ~24 reviews per person on average
Reviewer Management
Discussion on handling reviewers without assignments:
Some kept as backups for potential shortages
Importance of having up-to-date information on reviewer interests and expertise
Suggestion to create a more comprehensive catalog of reviewer expertise for future years
Abstract Categorization
Some abstracts may need recategorization during review process
Final adjustments to categories may be made during session slotting to balance talk numbers
