RehabWeek is a week-long event that brings together several conferences in the field of rehabilitation technology at the same time and place in order to foster interdisciplinary communication and the development of relationships between different actors.
RehabWeek includes joint main lectures and other mutually organized sessions, such as panel discussions and poster sessions.
In addition, each conference also organizes its own specific sessions for the conference.
Visitors can freely choose which conference to attend at any time.
Why rehabilitation week?
As initiators and co-organizers of numerous conferences in the field of rehabilitation technology, we have long been aware of the lack of (scientific) communication in this field between those who design and build devices and those who use them with their patients.
This lack of communication between device manufacturers and device users is disastrous because successful inventions are always driven by the needs of the user, in our case, doctors and their patients.
We knew, therefore, that if we wanted to take rehabilitation technology to the next level, we needed a platform where all the players on the pitch could be gathered at the same table, to present and exchange ideas, receive feedback on their work and build long-lasting collaborations.
complete.
RehabWeek is this platform and it allows attendees to visit different conferences and meet with their colleagues in one place at the same time, instead of competing for attendees with individual conferences, RehabWeek brings them all together.
History of the rehabilitation week
In 2011, the IEEE International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR), the International Neurorehabilitation Symposium (INRS) and the International Conference on Virtual Rehabilitation (ICVR) joined forces to bring together engineers, clinical researchers, practicing physicians and industry representatives in a single place at the same time to maximize the exchange between different disciplines for the benefit of patients.
This first RehabWeek took place in Zurich, Switzerland, and attracted over 650 participants from all over the world.
