ISPO (International Society for Prosthetics and Orthotics) is a scientific conference bringing together all professionals in the field of external orthopedics and rehabilitation: surgeons, doctors, Certified Prosthetist-Orthotist, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and biomechanical engineers.
Prof. Dr. Joris Pascal from the FHNW took part in the event, which was held in Lyon on November 13 and 14, where he presented the HelpMeWalk project.
Professionals in the field were enthusiastic about the demonstration of the prototype and the perspectives it opens up for faster design of custom-made ortheses and prostheses. It was an opportunity to answer questions about the new technology. The conference also provided an opportunity to initiate collaborations with new orthopedic clinics.
