We are certain that Merano, which is located in the heart of the Alps, a region with three official languages, German, Italian, and Ladin, is best suited to connect Europe’s East and West, North and South. Historically, this region has always been a crossroad junction where different European cultures, languages, and civilizations met mostly (but not always) in a peaceful and constructive manner. During the past two decades developments in neuroscience have markedly increased, both in knowledge as well as in diagnostic and therapeutic armamentarium in neurorehabilitation. Due to this evolution, various European countries have founded national neurorehabilitation societies, which have been active in organising local congresses and educational programs over the years. These European activities and experiences have been represented at the biannual congresses of the World Federation of Neurorehabilitation. In the interest of European traditions in neurorehabilitation, the Austrian, Dutch, German, Italian, and Swiss societies have decided to organize a common European meeting in order to share local particularities, experiences, evidence, and future plans in neurorehabilitation on a broader European spectrum. The multicultural and multinational European initiative is reflected by the congress venue. Our intention was to provide ample space and time especially for the young colleagues. In this line we are able to present more than 130 Posters, 2 Digital Poster Sessions, 6 Workshops, 6 Meet the Professor Sessions, 3 Keynote Lectures, 1 Opening Lecture, and 18 Main Sessions. The First European NeuroRehabilitation Congress 2011 should serve as a platform for scientific exchange of knowledge on a European level. At the same time it will set the stage for presentation of the recently founded European Federation of NeuroRehabilitation Societies (EFNRS), which respects national traditions while attempting to unify forces in order to advance neurorehabilitation in Europe. We hope that our meeting will fulfill your expectations, and that you will perceive the First European NeuroRehabilitation Congress 2011 in Merano, South Tyrol, Italy, as an ideal opportunity to interact with colleagues from Europe and beyond and to share your experience with us.

Currency The official currency is the EURO (€). Major credit cards are accepted in many hotels, shops and restaurants. Automatic teller machines (ATMs) are also available throughout the city. GENERAL INFORMATION Internet Café Free internet stations will be available in the exhibition area. There is no wireless access at the Kurhaus. Name badges All registered participants and exhibitors receive a name badge together with their registration documents. Please make sure to wear your badges at all times while attending the meeting, exhibition and social events. Weather / Climate The climate is remarkably mild due to the unusual geographical position of the basin in which the town lies and the fact that it is sheltered by the high peaks of the Tessa Mountain Group. The unique climate allows for an extraordinary presence of Mediterranean and tropical plants that form a striking visual departure from the typical alpine character normally found at these latitudes. On a sunny day in October the temperature in Merano can reach 20°C during the daytime and fall to 5°C during the night. You can enjoy very nice sunny days at the end of October; normally there are only about 3 rainy days during the whole month of October. Liability and insurance Neither the organisers, nor the congress secretariat or other suppliers accept liability for any injury, loss or damage, arising from accidents or other situations during, or as a consequence of the congress. Kindly check your personal insurance. 16 INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS/CHAIRPERSONS Information for speakers The main rooms are equipped with data projector and a PC for PowerPointpresentation.
