Brain Injury in Children: SickKids Centre for Brain&Behaviour 2nd Biennial Conference

12-Jul-2012 - 14-Jul-2012

The only way to understand the pathogenesis and natural history of childhood brain injury and its co-morbidities is to develop coherent multidisciplinary approaches to this problem in therapeutic and research domains. Novel interventions can be developed to target both the biological genesis and the psychosocial co-morbidity of brain injury in children.

The 2nd Biennial International Symposium on Brain Injury in Children is the only conference devoted exclusively to the full range of paediatric brain injury types, and it will provide a unique vehicle to develop multidisciplinary strategies for research and treatment in childhood brain injury.

Furthermore, the symposium supports the SickKids Centre for Brain & Behaviour’s strategic goals of engaging in global opportunities to enhance child health, build capacity, and to build strategic partnerships and pursue opportunities to collaborate both internally and externally in the paediatric neurosciences.
