MARP-ARMA Abstract Submission

We are very much looking forward to RehabWeek and MARP-ARMA 2023 from September 24th to 28th in Singapore! We cordially invite you to participate by submitting your work and by taking the opportunity to discuss it and learn from RehabWeek attendees from different professional backgrounds.

Please click the below button to submit your abstract.

Submission DEADLINE is March 15th, 2023. There will be NO EXTENSIONS to this deadline!

PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!

General Remarks
The abstract/paper submission is handled by each RehabWeek society/conference individually. Please note that while you are welcome to submit different projects to different RehabWeek conferences, the same work may only be submitted to one of the conferences. Please do not submit the same work to different conferences, be respectful of the reviewer's time, thank you!

The Poster Session During the Conference
The poster session will take place in the same place as the exhibition and the catering. There will be a dedicated poster viewing and judging session in the main program, and poster presenters will also be expected to be present at their posters during certain coffee and lunch breaks (depending on the society to which you submit). Poster presenters are expected to be registered for the conference, otherwise, their poster will be removed from the program.
The top scientific MARP-ARMA submissions will be selected for the poster fast forward sessions and asked to present their poster in 60 seconds during the conference. They will be eligible for the RehabWeek poster awards. Clinical posters are currently not eligible for the poster award.

Poster Types
MARP-ARMA will be accepting two different types of abstracts:

1) Scientific Abstracts

These are your typical conference abstracts about ongoing or completed research that has to do with the CLINICAL APPLICATION OF REHABILITATION TECHNOLOGY, i.e. reports on studies in which people with physical disabilities train with technology to regain function, activities or the ability to participate in  society. Examples of such technologies can be found here: https://iisart.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/sp5_example_new_technologies.pdf

2) Clinical Abstracts

These posters are submitted by clinicians who have something to share that could benefit other attendees. These posters are NOT about research or scientific studies (but also not commercial promotion), but nevertheless information that is of interest to the people in this field. Examples could be a report about how a device, or several devices, were successfully integrated into a clinic, about an educational program that the clinic is conducting, about sharing a treatment plan, about how they managed to receive reimbursement for technology supported training or similar stories. Please note that the topic of these posters should still be about rehabilitation technology! No general clinical topics will be accepted. Please note that posters commercially promoting a specific device will not be accepted. Companies wishing to promote their devices should get in contact with Kenes M+ to talk about sponsoring or exhibition opportunities. In the clinical abstract category, we expect submissions from practicing clinicians, that are neutral and provide both advantages and disadvantages of a device if they describe a clinical experience. 

Submission Instructions
All abstracts can be up to 2000 characters long including spaces. You can add up to three references. Abstracts have to be submitted through this form. You will submit it as plain text into the text fields, we will take care of the formatting. PLEASE adhere closely to the instructions of each field!

Submission DEADLINE is March 15th, 2023. There will be NO EXTENSIONS to this deadline!

MARP-ARMA only accepts submissions for POSTERS, not PLENARY PRESENTATIONS.

MARP-ARMA abstracts will not be published but made available to all RehabWeek attendees in electronic form.


Thank you for understanding that only complete submissions can be accepted.
