Dear friends and colleagues,
It is our great pleasure to invite you to the 8th Congress of
physiatrists of Serbia
with international attendance, which will take place in Ivanjica from 21st
to 24th May 2008. We believe to have excellent conditions for
successful work in the pleasant surroundings of Ivanjica.
The association is a full member of ISPRM
(International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine) and a
member of ESPRM (European Society of Physical and Rehabilitation
Medicine).
Our congress meetings are held annually and traditionally we gather
physiatrists, rheumatologists, orthopedists, child surgeons,
neurosurgeons, cardiologists, neurologists and other experts in
rehabilitation. The purpose of the congress is to demonstrate and share
scientific achievements, professional innovations, accomplishments and
experiences, with the goal of expanding the knowledge in the field of
physical medicine and rehabilitation and improving the health of our
patients.
This year’s Congress is organized by the Serbian Association of
Physiatrists and the Serbian Physicians’ Association, Departmentfor physical medicine and rehabilitation. The topics featured at
the congress, selected from the field of physical medicine and
rehabilitation, will be presented in the form of plenary lectures by
eminent professors from Serbia, the surrounding countries (Montenegro,
Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina), as well as other countries of the
world. The original works will be reviewed by the Scientific Board, and
will be presented on posters. The best original scientific works will be
presented oraly
For the first time we will introduce workshops, which will hopefully be
very useful.
We
believe this year’s Congress will also be an opportunity for all
participants to find time and socialize and enjoy the artistic program
and entertainment, planned for them during the Congress.
We
expect to see You at the Congress and we are looking forward to Your
arrival!
