American Academy of Pediatrics Yearly Conferences

An opportunity to connect with fellows and faculty across the country.

The American Academy of Pediatrics and formula companies sponsor several yearly conferences. Conference announcements are emailed to the program director, who then fields interest from available fellows. An abstract submission is, at times, required. Our fellows have enjoyed the educational and social engagement these conferences have to offer, and the locations are quite attractive! The list of conference options include:

  • Seminar on Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine: Sponsored by AAP/Abbot Nutrition Health Institute
  • Perinatal & Developmental Medicine Symposium
  • Northeastern Conference on Perinatal Research
    • sponsored by AAP Section on Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine(SONPM)
