Annual Scientific Meeting of the International Society for Prosthetics
and Orthotics

Carlton Crest Hotel
Sydney, Australia
WELCOME
On behalf of the convening committee, I extend an invitation to you to
attend the 2005 Annual Scientific Meeting of ISPO Australia. The
conference promises to be exciting for all who have an interest in
prosthetics, orthotics, biomechanics of gait, and treatment of amputees,
with broad, relevant and meaningful themes for the various professional
groups with such interests. Our keynote speaker Dr Richard Baker is
outstanding in his field and has the key to make gait analysis
understandable for us. While the presentations will keep you keep
enthralled, Sydney's climate in November is ideal for discovering the
city's attractions.
Join us for a very stimulating and diverse scientific programme and
social activities that will contribute to a successful conference.
Friedbert Kohler,
Convenor, ANMS ISPO 2005 ASM
