Working together to improve the lives of people with brain impairment

As conveners, and on behalf of the organising committee of the 2014 ASSBI conference, you are warmly invited to Fremantle, Western Australia to participate in an exciting program of international and national keynote speakers who will focus on factors that influence positive outcomes for people with brain injury well beyond their initial hospitalisation. Four workshops and a broad range of papers will be presented from renowned international and national speakers as well as free papers and posters. We are delighted to announce that A/Professor Jeff Kleim from Arizona State University talking about neuroplasticity and Professor Keith Yeates from Ohio State University who is a paediatric specialist will be the distinguished International Keynote Speakers. We have also secured Professor Beth Armstrong from Edith Cowan University who will be focusing on language recovery in the Aboriginal population after stroke and Professor Kathryn McPherson from NZ who will talk on Goal Directed Interdisciplinary Rehab Approaches. There will also be a one day workshop that will take you to Brightwater Care Group’s new facility in WA where you will tour the Oats St facility and hear a presentation from Dianne Smith, head of interior architecture at Curtin University. If you are not on the distribution list to receive further information on this send an email to admin@assbi.com.au We look forward to seeing you in Fremantle in 2014 Louise Cato & Janet Wagland Co-Convenors
