Overview
We invite you to the Symposium on Health Innovation and Neonatal Excellence, SHINE 2026. Over three days, this conference will provide a comprehensive overview of several cutting-edge topics in neonatology. World renowned speakers will provide attendees with state-of-the-art knowledge in several areas related to innovations in fetal and neonatal surgery, artificial intelligence in neonatal health, telemedicine, state-of-the-art clinical trials, quality improvement in neonatology, innovations in nursing, and strategies to prevent chronic lung disease and lung injury in neonates. In addition, the conference will also feature a hands-on workshop session. This program will also be valuable for physicians who are preparing for or maintaining board certification in general pediatrics and neonatal-perinatal medicine.
