Focused Symposia
Focused Symposia are dynamic, in-depth sessions designed to explore emerging ideas, innovative practices, and current challenges in physiotherapy. Each symposium brings together leading experts and researchers to share insights, debate perspectives, and inspire collaboration across disciplines.

These are the titles of the focused symposia provisionally accepted, and are therefore subject to change.
