International Conference on Recent Advances in Neurorehabilitation

Recientemente en Valencia ha tenido lugar uno de los eventos más importantes en neurorrehabilitacióin en España. El congreso ICRAN reune a los investigadores más punteros en neurorrehabilitación. Si te lo perdiste como yo, puedes ponerte los dientes largos revisando quienes hablaron allí y sobre qué.

La rehabilitación virtual, la rehabilitación con robots y, las neurociencias y los sensores electrónicos  son los temas de este evento.

Cada una de las 16 charlas del evento es un auténtico compendio de experiencia:
