Before IISART came the INRS, an interdisciplinary conference since 2006.
The first INRS in 2006 was conducted in close collaboration with the University Hospital Balgrist and attracted 280 attendees with very diverse backgrounds.
IISART was later brought to life during RehabWeeek in 2011. Now, we have 38 members and counting.
IISART started as an idea in 2009 and quickly gained momentum. Learn more about IISART’s history by downloading a PDF presentation below:
