Abstract

European Academy of Paediatrics exists to promote the health of children and young people in Europe. It aims to improve standards in training, service and research and to represent the professional interests of paediatricians in the EU. EAP is the paediatric section of European Union of Medical Specialists and therefore has influence in the political arena to advocate for children and young people as well as for the profession. The congress will provide the most updated, state-of-the-art information on the latest developments in research and clinical practice in the main areas of Paediatrics. It also gives the opportunity to debate on controversial issues and to contribute, with your own voice, to the progress of the practice of paediatrics. The Congress will cover many important topics over 3 days and in parallel to this academic event.
