EAPS 2024 - 10th Congress of the European Academy of Paediatric Societies

Get ready for an extraordinary journey into the world of paediatrics! EAPS 2024, the 10th Congress of the European Academy of Paediatric Societies, is back and it's going to be truly remarkable.

Organised by the two leading European societies: the European Academy of Paediatrics (EAP), and the European Society for Paediatric Research (ESPR) - this biannual event is the ultimate hub of innovation and knowledge. We're bringing together the brightest minds in paediatrics, creating a powerful platform for education and groundbreaking research.

At EAPS 2024, we're not just keeping up, we're setting the pace. Our focus is on cutting-edge science, from genomics to gene therapy, and even harnessing the power of machine learning to decode the vast realms of paediatric data. The aim? To find answers that directly impact the lives of children across Europe and beyond.

We're not just hosting a Congress; we're fostering a global community. EAPS 2024 is all about inclusivity, drawing expertise from around the world. We're exploring how scientific advancements can be translated into real clinical care, nurturing today's children into the healthy adults of tomorrow. Plus, our theme this year is inspired by Vienna's rich musical history - we're striving for harmony between cutting-edge research and real-world clinical practice.

One of the highlights of the Congress are the free scientific papers, presenting fresh insights from emerging paediatric stars. These papers fuel spirited debates, spark meaningful conversations, and ignite collaborations that will shape the future of our field. What's more, every accepted abstract gets the chance to shine in a peer-reviewed paediatric journal.

But EAPS 2024 isn't just about science; it's about connections. It's the perfect platform to strengthen existing relationships, forge new ones, and create lifelong personal and professional bonds. And don't forget our exciting social and musical programme - because learning should also be fun!

The Congress Venue is the Austria Centre in Vienna, a truly exciting city that has numerous facets to explore and enjoy. Please take some relaxing time to find the balance between learning and well-being.

Mark your calendars for EAPS in Vienna and Online, 17-20 October 2024.

We are looking forward to welcoming you all there.
