The APTA Pennsylvania Practice and Research Committee invites members to submit abstracts for research, case reports, and special interest reports for presentation at the APTA Pennsylvania MovePA Annual Conference Oct. 22-24, 2021, at the Omni William Penn Hotel in Pittsburgh, PA. Submitted abstracts will be peer reviewed for consideration for platform or poster presentations. Abstracts that have been submitted or presented at other conferences may be considered for the APTA PA MovePA Annual Conference.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATION DUE TO COVID-19 CRISIS:
MovePA is scheduled to be held live in Pittsburgh, PA. However, in the event that emergency restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic are still in place, the conference may be moved to a virtual platform. In the event that this happens, both platform and poster presentations will still be presented as part of this conference.
