This course is designed to recreate realistic and challenging cases – such as insufficient oxygen levels in the blood, difficult airway management, emergency blood pressure issues or cardiac events – to improve clinical practice and patient outcomes. This live, instructor-led, advanced simulation course will provide a safe environment to learn about new techniques or drugs and offer participants experience in crisis management, patient safety and professional teamwork that can be difficult to teach in the active operating room arena.

This symposium hosted by the CHOP Multidisciplinary Immune Dysregulation Team is intended for clinicians, researchers and those who care for patients with complex multi-organ immune disease. It precedes the Clinical Immunology Society meeting in Philadelphia to synergize with common activities and themes. This symposium will explore immune dysregulation driven by infection; review knowledge on disease pathogenesis and best practices for therapeutics; and include cutting-edge talks, a debate on therapeutic decision-making, provocative cases and more.

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia is hosting a webinar exploring the hospital’s Liquid Biopsy for Neuroblastoma Panel and how it can enhance disease monitoring and treatment decisions.

This 1-day course will focus on chronic musculoskeletal pain syndromes in children and adolescents, which we refer to as Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome (AMPS). Medical, psychosocial, physical and occupational therapy diagnoses, and treatment will be presented. This course is designed to inform clinicians about current evidence-based, effective evaluation and treatment for AMPS.

This one-day program will provide neonatal nurses with innovative therapies in the neonatal intensive care unit. The target audience will be neonatal nurses from any level NICU (I-IV) with a variety of previous experience levels. This educational offering boasts information on a variety of complex physiological and developmental neonatal issues. Research and technology are consistently expanding, and this program will review some of the latest therapies used to care for sick neonates. 

The field of Delivery Room Resuscitation is rapidly advancing. This conference will feature the patient-oriented research and clinical updates on topics related to delivery room management of newborns with anomalies, including methods to optimize team performance. The objective of this conference is to enhance audience understanding of delivery room management of newborns with congenital anomalies, and to apply the latest information to their clinical practices. 

Now in its fourth year, this hands-on, interactive training provides researchers with the sensitivity, skills and knowledge to better recruit and engage children, youth or families who prefer a language other than English in health research. Hosted by PolicyLab faculty and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) team members, the Short Course on MARS features in-person sessions comprising of lectures, case studies, small group work and consultations. It is  tailored to graduate, postdoctoral, early career and senior investigators, and will support career development for multilingual investigators from underrepresented backgrounds by providing training to leverage language skills for multilingual research and grant-seeking. 

Neonatal healthcare providers are frequently challenged with finding the safest and most effective medication to choose for their patients in the neonatal intensive care unit. This 1-day course will provide an overview of medication safety and specific medication updates including indications, dosing and safety considerations.

Deciphering Beckwith-Wiedemann Spectrum will provide updates on current diagnostic and clinical management information and the latest research findings on the condition. Conference attendees will be educated on the vast spectrum of presenting clinical features, current clinical management practices, and common medical procedures. Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia will be joined by collaborators from around the world to present ongoing research topics.
