To Walk Again: the Future of High Dose Motor Rehabilitation – 31 January 2026

From 2023 – 2025 a consortium consisting of clinical and research partners conducted a clinical trial investigating effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a high dose motor rehabilitation program for people after stroke and spinal cord injury in the chronic phase. We would like to present you the results of this trial and invite you to look with us into the future of rehabilitation as part of chronic care.
