After careful consideration, the RIMS Board made a joint decision to postpone the RIMS Annual Meeting, originally scheduled for June 4-6, to the end of the year (December 4-5, 2020).
We appreciate the large number of submitted abstracts, which clearly indicates the interest of the rehabilitation community and the importance of the RIMS event. But the outbreak of the corona virus and the current developments made us decide not to organize the face to face meeting in June.
However, rest assured that the Board remains focused on delivering what is an important event for the community! We will keep up the good standards in organizing networking opportunities and educational events, as we do want to stay on top to enhance activity and participation for all people with MS whenever and wherever they need it!
And we would like to encourage you too to continue the good work, despite the crisis we are facing globally. Let us know where RIMS could be of any help, we are here for you.
Also in 2020, RIMS will continue to stimulate networking and provide opportunities for rehabilitation practitioners to interact, learn and share experiences with each other. We thus look forward to meeting you at the Annual Meeting at the end of the year! Sign up for the event using this link. Pre-registration is still required. If you have already registered for the RIMS Conference, your registration will automatically be trasferred to the RIMS Digital Conference. You will receive a reumbursement of the reduced registration fee.
We will get back to you as soon as we have more details, but recommend monitoring the official Conference website www.rims-annualconference.org/leuven2020, as the latest updates are published there.
We thank you for your loyalty and commitment to RIMS!
