On behalf of the Gait & Clinical Movement Analysis Society (GCMAS), we are pleased to announce that we are now accepting tutorial and symposia proposals for the 2019 GCMAS Annual Conference in Dallas, TX. The meeting will be held at the Frisco Conference Center from March 26-29, 2019. Meeting details are available at http://www.gcmas.org/conference.

All proposals will be reviewed and scored by the GCMAS Education Council. Proposals that align with topics outlined by the Program Chair will be selected for tutorials and/or symposia by the Conference Program Council. Creative proposals in all areas of clinical movement analysis are welcome. We encourage proposals on topics such as:
• Scapular, upper extremity, trunk motion capture
• EMG processing methods
• Wheelchair movement analysis
• Static and dynamic balance measurements
• Brain imaging during functional tasks
• Measurement other than motion analysis (e.g., metabolics, physical activity, pressure)
• Big data research/machine learning
• OpenSim and musculoskeletal modeling
• Concussion or PTSD evaluation
• ACL injury, rehab, and surgical interventions
• Clinical sport protocols
• Orthotic prescription for neurological disorders and gait disturbances
• Prosthetic components and how they function
• Orthopedic/surgical outcomes for healthcare providers (treatment decision making)
• Research designs including single-subject designs
• Newer statistical analyses
• CMLA accreditation/best practices for accreditation
• Establishing collaborations between clinicians and researchers
• Setting up a successful gait lab (best practices, challenges, lessons learned, etc.)
• Mentoring or other professional development topics
All presentation formats are welcome, including podium presentation, pro/con debates, panel discussions, etc.
