The abstract submission website is now open and is set to close on Saturday, January 31, 2026 at 11:59pm EST.
The Scientific Review Committee is pleased to invite abstract submissions in the following presentation formats:
• Scientific Presentations – Free Paper Presentations and Scientific Posters
• Demonstration Posters
• Clinical Observation or Single Case Study Posters
• Education Sessions (60 minutes)
• Pre-Conference Sessions (105 or 240 minutes)
The meeting theme is “80 years of Science Rooted in Brotherly Love and Lifelong Community” and submissions with this focus are encouraged but the theme is not a limit of submission topics. The following high priority topics:
• Basic science advances in pediatric disability research
• Innovations in technology and care delivery for children with childhood onset disability
• Evidence-based Clinical Science
• Clinical Science with community involvement
• Integration of scientific evidence into practice
• Disability representation in academia and healthcare
• Planning for the future of pediatric rehabilitation through the co-production (e.g., PLE, scientists, clinicians) of evidence-based practices
**IMPORTANT**: Make sure to follow abstract formatting criteria for your desired presentation type. For example, there is a significant difference between “Scientific Presentation” and “Demonstration Poster” (see below). Selecting the incorrect presentation category for your submission can result in abstract rejection. Please review ALL of the instructions below before selecting your presentation category.
