Professor Lecturing on Stage

Meetings

 

We are excited to invite you to the Society for Back Pain Annual Meeting, which will be held at Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen on June 13th and 14th, 2024. This meeting is an excellent opportunity to learn about the latest research in back pain and network with other key professionals and researchers

in the field.

 

We have an impressive lineup of keynote speakers this year, including Dr David Hohenschurz-Schmidt from Imperial College and University College of Osteopathy London, who will be discussing innovations in non-pharmacological trials and the roles of explanatory and pragmatic designs. Dr Liba Sheeran from Cardiff University will be presenting on advances in digital and health technologies for management of spine pain. Finally, Professor Tim Holsgrove from the University of Exeter will be discussing complex physiological loading of the spine.

 

In addition to these keynote speakers, there will be the normal excellent variety of presentations and

posters covering the latest research on back pain, innovation and best practices for managing patients with back pain. You will also have the opportunity to network with colleagues in the field and share your own research and seek collaborative opportunities.
