The Program

Invited Speakers

National experts from a variety of fields speak on relevant topics pertinent to the care of neonates. You may learn about physiology and therapeutics; resources and innovative programs; or a new perspective to approach care.

Main Session

During the symposium main session, invited speakers are incorporated with additional dynamic presenters that focus on CHNC accomplishments, CIQI collaboratives, platform abstracts, and updates from our many focus groups.

Poster Reception

From the competitive selection process of abstract submissions, the best abstracts are selected for poster presentation at an informal learning and social get-together typically held outside of the main session programming. Here we share individual successes in quality improvement projects, basic science research and implementation of innovative programs in a social environment.

Workshops & Educational Breakouts

Attendees can participate in a variety of interactive, hands-on workshops and educational breakout sessions targeted to the multidisciplined CHNC Symposium audience. Session topics include quality improvement, communication, procedural skills, program development, and leadership proficiency. The goal of these multicenter collaborative sessions is to share knowledge and provide clinicians with implementable practice changes.
