Dear attendee,

On behalf of the Organisational and Scientific Committees of RIMS, we want to thank you for attending this year’s Annual RIMS Conference in sunny Barcelona (4-6 May, 2017)!

We are proud to have been able to bring together 320 delegates from 22 countries, giving all of us the opportunity to interact with healthcare professionals, researchers and patient representatives sharing knowledge and experiences on topics related to rehabilitation in Multiple Sclerosis.

It is the committee’s hope that attendees appreciated the presentations of the diverse and dynamic group of faculty, and that valuable contacts have been established during the networking moments.

Your active contributions - be it during the Conference sessions, the Teaching Courses, the Special Interest Group Meetings or the poster sessions - helped making this year’s edition of the RIMS Conference a true success. Thank you!

Special thanks also go to NeuroCompass for its extensive report on the conference. It can be found at the following webpage: https://www.neuro-compass.education/en-gb/highlights-from-the-22nd-annual-rims-conference/

We look forward to welcoming you all again at the next edition of the Annual RIMS Conference, scheduled to take place in Spring 2018 in The Netherlands. The exact date and location will be communicated soon.

With our best personal regards,

Peter Feys, Outgoing President RIMS
