The 16th European Congress of PRM

　　The 16th European Congress of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine: “From cell to society”

　　On behalf of the European Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine we are pleased to invite you to the 16th European Congress of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine taking place in the wonderful city of Bruges, 3-6 June, 2008.

　　It will be a pleasure to welcome you to this European Congress "New Style". The European Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine (ESPRM) has decided to install an official European Scientific Committee that will be responsible for the quality of the lectures, workshops and posters. This Committee will also continue to give support to future European congresses.

　　In addition to the cdb_1_topics selected by the European Scientific Committee, other cdb_1_topics have been suggested by the local Scientific and Organising Committees. Awards for best papers, abstracts and posters will be presented by the European Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine and the UEMS (European Board). The Organising Committee hopes that the scientific programme will encourage a dialogue among colleagues in both formal and informal settings. After the sessions, a rich choice of icebreaker activities will be your passport to social contacts and new friendships.

　　Together with the European Society, the European and National Scientific Committees and the Royal Belgian Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine we hope to welcome you in large numbers, knowing that currently 13,000 specialists of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine are working all over Europe. As the Congress is endorsed by the International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine (ISPRM) we are convinced that many colleagues from outside Europe will also attend this Congress.

　　Bruges lies in the heart of historical and cultural Flanders. This wonderful 'Venice of the North' is also renowned for its gastronomy and lifestyle and truly deserves a prolongation of your stay. This congress will be a good foretaste of the 2010 congress, organised by Alessandro Giustini in the real Venice. See you in Bruges and beware, you might just fall in love with it!
