On March 8th, International Women’s Day, the Italian Association of Physiotherapy (AIFI) launched a contest for the “Best Scientific Article” among its members.
Women researching women
Dr. Chiara Bò, physiotherapist and member of the MerloBioEngineering team for over four years and of the Research Unit of the Sol et salus Hospital, was one of the five winners with her paper titled “Self-managed physical activity in breast cancer survivors: a scoping review” and published on the PlosOne journal.
The review highlights the importance of physical activity as a lifestyle approach for patients diagnosed with breast cancer—not only in the months immediately following treatment but especially in the long term—promoting self-care and women’s empowerment.
We previously shared a post about the publication, which is available here.
Congratulations to all the winners, and happy International Women’s Day!
