Will next year’s WCPT Congress break new ground?

21/03/2018 by Dave Nicholls Leave a Comment

The scientific programme at WCPT Congress provides a good barometer of physiotherapists' interests and the things that it thinks are current or 'coming' in the profession.  But when people pay their registration fee, they're signing up for everything, so it's not until after the event that we get to see what people attended and what they didn't.
