IISART Educational Material
The education slidepools provide an overview of basic as well as specific information on new technologies in neurorehabilitation. Downloading the education material is free and intended to assist schools and universities in their efforts to establish courses in advanced rehabilitation technologies as well as for clinicians to deepen their knowledge.
ISPRM Orlando 2020
In a conference that was heavily affected already by the COVID-19 pandemic, IISART had organized an early breakfast session discussing how technology changes the every day life of clinicians and how education needs to adapt to prepare future clinicians for this change.
The IISART speakers Drs. Alberto Esquenazi, Deborah Backus, Candy Tefertiller and Gloria Miller shared examples of how the education system is adapting. The moderator and IISART co-president Dr. Martina Spiess shared some examples of how certain programs have integrated education on rehabilitation technologies into their curriculum.
You can find them in the slides. The consent was that we came a long way, but there is still some way to go.
The IISART was thrilled, that over 70 people found their way to this early morning session and we thank all speakers and attendees for their time and efforts!
WCNR 2020
As part of our long-standing collaboration with the WFNR, IISART presented a session on Artificial Intelligence in Rehabilitation Technology, and the excitement and fears associated with it. In true IISART manner, we invited both engineers and clinicians to our virtual table for a joint discussion. Our four speakers, Dr. Alberto Esquenazi, Sarah Daniel, Dr. Lars Luenenburger and Dr. Susanne Suter, each gave an input presentation, which, in accordance with the congress requirements, were pre-recorded. This was followed by a live, and very lively discussion in the end.
IISART would like to cordially thank our speakers and the congress organizers for this opportunity! If you missed the session, you now have the chance to view the recording through the link below. We hope this is useful for you and we invite you to contact us at education@iisart.org with any questions, comments or concerns!
