SPASTICITY X (2024)

A Meeting of the Minds to X-out Spasticity
October 24-26, 2024 | Houston Texas, USA | The Westin Galleria
https://spasticityx.eventscribe.net/

Spasticity X was the First International Spasticity Symposium bringing together top experts and rising stars in spasticity and sensorimotor disorders from around the globe.

“SPASTICITY X” was coined based on a vision to bring together physicians, residents, researchers, industry executives, patients, and others from across the globe grounded in a common interest to ‘X-out’ spasticity to improve the lives of millions.

Over 300 leading minds and up-and-coming stars in spasticity came together for three jam-packed days of learning, collaborating, networking, brainstorming, and fun (yeehaw!). The first SPASTICITY X cohort hailed from 35 countries – everywhere from Australia to Brazil, from Cameroon to Italy, from Myanmar to the Philippines – and many places in between.

Overarching themes of innovation and diversity emphasized that the spasticity community is stronger together and everyone was encouraged and empowered to bring unique perspectives and experiences to share openly with colleagues and friends.
