Dear Colleagues,
In the summer of 2007 the 10th edition of the International Conference on
Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR 2007) will take place in the Netherlands.
ICORR 2007 will highlight the most recent advances in rehabilitation
robotics and their relevance to end users. To emphasize this focus, the
theme of the conference is Robots care!

SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM
The program for ICORR 2007 will bring both the basic sciences of
rehabilitation robotics, novel designs, their employment in clinical trials
and case studies, and their relevance to end users. The conference will be
focused on, but not limited to, the following topics:
* Assistive robotics
* Therapy robotics
* Orthoses and exoskeletons
* User interfaces and (brain) control
* Socially interactive robotics
* Robotic environments and companions
* Evaluation and user experience
* Biorobotics and biomimetics

The program consists of different types of presentations, some of them new
to this conference: Plenary lectures, Podium presentations, Interactive
presentations, Laboratory presentations, User Forums, and also Special
Sessions preceding the conference. Information on these exiting conference
elements will be posted on the ICORR 2007 website: www.icorr2007.org.
Participants are invited to submit full papers for peer review on the
subjects of their interest. Instructions for authors will be made available
on the ICORR 2007 website.

ANNIVERSARY SYMPOSIUM: ROADMAP
To celebrate the 10th anniversary a special symposium will be held in
combination with the conference, dedicated to formulating a research roadmap
on fundamental issues and future research directions. If you are interested
in participating and organizing please contact the conference chairs at
