Ellen Aartun and Lise Vilstrup Holm have been awarded grants from ECCRE in 2017. This was decided by the board at their meeting in Cyprus in connection with the ECU convention in Limassol.
Ellen Aartun and her co-investigators receive EUR 55,479.00 as co-funding of their research project “Development of an ICF-based assessment schedule for manual medicine”.
Ellen Aartun and her co-investigators aim to develop an assessment schedule, which captures the complex nature of disability in patients with low back pain who are treated with manual medicine in the form of manipulation and mobilization.

During the summit, the researchers have had presentations from a long line of researchers in management in theory and practice, how to construct a career as a researcher and how to become a good Head of Research.
They have also…
