ANZSCoS ASM 2023: Expect the Unexpected
Invitation from the Convenor
On behalf of the Australian & New Zealand Spinal Cord Society (ANZSCoS), the organising committee would like to extend an invitation to attend the Annual Scientific Meeting of ANZSCoS, to be held at the Hilton Adelaide, from 22 – 24 November 2023.
The theme for this event, “Expect the Unexpected”, is centred around the challenges we face, be that a spinal cord injury, natural disaster, personal crisis or the events of the past few years, and this links with highlighting the passion and adaptability that we all aspire to. We aim to gather a group of inspirational voices who will inform, motivate, and influence our delegates to be champions of disability inclusion, particularly in spinal cord injury management, and anticipate a range of abstracts that align with that focus. We are expecting approximately 200 delegates to attend including consumers, doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, psychologists, social workers, researchers, exercise physiologists, community service providers and students.
We look forward to welcoming you to what we are sure will be an exciting meeting.
