President 's welcome
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
It’s my pleasure to learn that Riva del Garda is hosting the XI Congress of European Federation for Research in Rehabilitation from 26-28 May 2011.
The title chosen for this congress is “Perspectives and controversial issues for research in rehabilitation”, which summarises the objectives that the Society has set as our theme for the next few years of work.
The topics of this conference clearly highlight the need for further understanding the state of the art of the research in the different fields of the rehabilitation.
The knowledge and experiences deriving from this congress will further strengthen the studies on disabilities from many different point of view.
I am sure that our deliberations will contribute significantly to the promotion of rehabilitation knowledge in Europe.
Besides the city of Riva del Garda will give you the opportunity to take a trip to view the beauties of the Lake of Garda.
Alessandro Giustini
