Exceptionally, due to the pandemic, the 16th Congress of the European Forum for Research in Rehabilitation was held online. The virtual congress was again multiprofessional where both researchers and clinicians got together. It focused on various topics ranging from basic research on rehabilitation, return to work and quality of life, including technological improvements as well as the clinical viewpoints. The conference theme was “Inovating rehabilitation: building bridges between research, technology and service”. Besides plenary and invited lectures, the participants enjoyed the opportunity to present their work in form of oral presentations and poster sessions. Also workshops were offered and were attended mainly from young researchers.
