Shirley Ryan Ability Lab
Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, formerly the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago (RIC), is the global leader in physical medicine and rehabilitation for adults and children with the most severe, complex conditions — from traumatic brain and spinal cord injury to stroke, amputation and cancer-related impairment. Shirley Ryan AbilityLab expands and accelerates leadership in the field that began at RIC in 1953 — its care and research designated the “No. 1 Rehabilitation Hospital in America” by U.S. News & World Report every year since 1991. Upon opening in March 2017, the $550 million, 1.2-million-square-foot Shirley Ryan AbilityLab became the first-ever “translational” research hospital in which clinicians, scientists, innovators and technologists work together in the same space, surrounding patients, discovering new approaches and applying (or “translating”) research in real time. This unique model enables patients to have 24/7 access to the brightest minds, the latest research and the best opportunity for recovery. For more information, go to sralab.org.
Northwestern University: Department of Physical Therapy and Movement Sciences
The department of Physical Therapy and Movement Sciences (PTHMS) at Northwestern University, is the oldest Physical Therapy educational program in the US, and is well known for its engineering and technology-oriented approach to the training of Doctors in Physical Therapy DPT, PhD as well as dual degree students (e.g., DPT/PhD in engineering) in the area of movement and rehabilitation sciences. Our department was the first in the world to combine doctoral training in physical therapy with PhD training in engineering. Also, PTHMS is among the first in exploring the realization of DPT training combined with a Master’s in prosthetics and orthotics. Another differentiator that positions us well, compared to other research-intensive programs in PT, is the integration of our DPT with an MS in Public Health in only a three-year time period. Our educational DPT and PhD programs also emphasize the use of the latest technologies in the delivery of course content.
Technaid, S.L.
Technaid is a Spanish company specialized in developing robotic assistive systems to help improve people’s lives. We currently focus on two areas: First, we manufacture inertial technology devices: from motion sensors to systems that capture and analyze human biomechanics. Second, we develop robotic exoskeletons for research in mobility rehabilitation and in robotic control applied to human biomechanics. Furthermore we partner with national and international research centers and use the resulting state-of-the-art know-how to manufacture exclusive products and make them commercially available with a short go-to-market span.

International Consortium For Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR)
The purpose of the ICORR consortium is to contribute to and promote collaborative research in the areas of robotics and advanced technologies as applied to healthcare in concerns with rehabilitation, therapy, and functional independence. In particular: 1) by forming the official body organizing the ICORR conference; 2) by organizing other workshops and events on rehabilitation and associated technologies; 3) by disseminating information and encouraging research and research impact; 4) by establishing relations with other similar associations, national or international; 5) by promoting the field and supporting young talented researchers in education and advanced research and development. To fulfill its purpose, the consortium shall act directly by its board or through its members or through specialized groups created by its members. ICORR is a non-profit organization registered in Zurich, Switzerland.
