UIC OT students and faculty present at 2021 COTEC-ANOTHE Congress

UIC OT faculty and students were well represented at the 2nd Annual Council of Occupational Therapists for European Countries-European Network of Occupational Therapy in Higher Education. Faculty and students presented or contributed to 10 papers and posters in the virtual format.
