The Physiotherapy Forum is an opportunity for physiotherapists, or anyone interested in physiotherapy, to network, enjoy presentations from emerging and established researchers and clinical leaders and most of all, have fun!
Tickets to the Physiotherapy Forum are an add-on to registration. You can purchase a ticket via the online registration system or email reg_ics24@kenes.com. Spaces are limited so please purchase your ticket early. Please note you must be registered for the ICS Annual Meeting before you can buy a ticket to this session.
At the end of the session, all attendees are welcome to stay for a light lunch. This will be included in your forum ticket so why not enjoy some food whilst you chat with friends and network with colleagues from around the world?
