ECTS Membership Benefits go Mobile – New Society App

We are pleased to announce the launch of a new overarching society App.
Use the app to learn about the latest developments of the society and network with your peers through the Members Lounge.  The ECTS App will also give you direct access to the Education Resource Center, our online library with webcasts, presentations and other educational material relevant to the field.

 

Coming out soon, the ECTS 2018 Congress App will be directly accessible from this mobile App to provide you with everything you need for your preparation and attendance at ECTS Congress: browse the scientific programme, presentations, posters, abstracts, exhibitors & maps.

The ECTS Society App is available to everyone working in the musculoskeletal field but some of the content will be restricted to members.
