The Italian Society of Clinical Movement Analysis
has been founded in Pisa (Italy) the 11th June 1999.

The mission of the Society is to foster the study and
the clinical application of movement analysis methods,
in order to improve the functional evaluation of motor
disorders, to enhance the efficacy of the treatments
through a quantitative analysis of data and a more
focussed treatment planning, to quantify the results
of current therapies.

Medical and engineering components are integrated
in the SIAMOC, and both contribute at creating a
stimulating scientific environment, collaboration
among groups, professional competencies.
The Society is open to collaboration with other
scientific Societies, both national and international,
and to activate initiatives of mutual benefit.
The Society is affiliated with Gait & Posture.
Members of the Society receive a subscription to
the journal at the reduced rate as part of their
annual membership of the Society.

Each year it organises an Italian Congress,
meetings, courses, seminars.
In several occasions awards are given to students
and young researchers. Whenever possible also
specific scientific activities are financed by the
Society.
