The 2025 Annual Conference Scientific Program includes symposium presentations, which offer multiple researchers’ perspectives on related themes, showcasing the breadth of expertise in the ISOQOL community. Presentations and debate among speakers address alternative solutions, interpretations or points of view within the symposium topic area.
Symposium sessions occur on two separate conference days, and cover a variety of topics: there’s something for everyone!
