ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
Scientific Committee split the
Congress in two list of topics as explained. Under you can find the abstract
sending rules and the two different topic list. If you need further
information, please visit the web-site:
or send a mail to :
info@cesprm2010.eu
INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS
Use
topic list as e-mail object and attach
the abstract in word format (.doc) 2003 o higher version.
Congress Scientific Committee will evaluate
Abstract to accept at 2
levels :
A) as Scientific
Presentation (probably 10 –15 minutes ) to be involved
in the main programme (and Scientific Sessions in main rooms ) of
Venice Congress in relation to the
relevance of contents, experiences and
methodologies .
In this case Authors
must follow the
Extended Topics List and the abstract submission deadline is 30-09-2009
, after Scientific
Committee valutation will be
within 31-01-2010
and the complete
work has to be sent within 30-03-2010.
B) as Poster
or Oral Presentation as traditional way . In this second case the Topics List
can be the short one, and
the abstract submission deadline is 28-02.-2010 to be evaluated by
the Scientific Committee, and the complete work has
to be sent within 30-03-2010,
in time for the Congress Final Programme and Proceedings publication. At
this level could be transferred, accordingly together Authors, also the
unaccepted Abstract of previous A case.
Abstracts

[1] The
Clinical Rehabilitation Sciences study how to provide best care with the goal
of enabling people with health conditions experiencing or likely to experience
disability to achieve and maintain optimal functioning in interaction with
their immediate environment. It contains clinical research on best care
including guidelines and standards, organization and quality management,
coordination as well as education and training of professionals in rehabilitation,
evaluation of the rehabilitation team and multidisciplinary care.
[2] The
biosciences in rehabilitation are basic sciences which aim to explain body
injury, adaptation and repair from the molecular to the cellular, organ system
and organism level; and to identify targets for biomedical interventions to
improve body functions and structures.
[3] The
biomedical rehabilitation sciences and engineering are applied sciences which
study diagnostic measures and interventions including physical modalities
suitable to minimize impairment, control symptoms and to optimize people’s
capacity.
[4] The
integrative rehabilitation sciences design and study rehabilitation systems,
services, comprehensive assessments and intervention programs which integrate
biomedical, personal factor and environmental approaches suited to optimize people’s
performance.
[5] The human
functioning sciences are basic sciences from the comprehensive perspective
which aim to understand human functioning and to identify targets for comprehensive
interventions.
