2025 Milwaukee Symposium

Concussion In Sport Group Symposium

CISG has partnered with the Sports Neuropsychology Society (SNS) to host our first Clinical and Educational Symposium, which is independent and apart from the quadrennial International Consensus Conference and will be held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on April 30th and May 1st , 2025 at the Pfister Hotel. This unique joint meeting will feature two related but separate educational experiences for showcasing clinical advances and research (e.g., poster sessions, brief podium presentations, invited speaker presentations/workshops, panel discussions, etc.). Continuing education credits will be available, and there will be opportunities to meet and network with like- minded clinicians and researchers from around the world in a casual collegial setting.
