This intimate conference offers a unique blend of cutting-edge science, practical application, and collegial interaction.

Theme for SINR 2026: Rehabilitation of Identity after Brain Injury. As always, we will address cognitive, psychological, and community/social challenges after brain injury and provide evidence based interventions via case presentations and hands-on workshops.

Each day focuses on a specific domain of neuropsychological rehabilitation of identity, structured to guide you from theory to practice:

  day’s topic.

  relevant interventions.
• Afternoon Skills Workshop: Hands-on practice with the interventions
  discussed, ensuring you leave with actionable skills.
