Registration: Biennial Meeting of the AEPC Neurodevelopmental and Psychosocial Care Working Group – Kinderspital Zürich – Eleonorenstiftung
This conference will explore promising strategies to support neurodevelopmental, behavioural and mental health outcomes— we will examine interventions being implemented in the population of children with CHD but also those that have been successfully implemented in other populations, covering a wide range of ages and approaches.
Sessions will cover both conceptual frameworks and practical approaches to complex interventions, with insights from researchers, clinicians, and stakeholders.
Audience: Healthcare professionals working with CHD patients (cardiologists, paediatricians, nurses, psychologists, speech therapist, dieticians …) or other paediatric populations, AEPC and CNOC members, patients and parents.
Abstract submission is now open.
We warmly invite you to submit your valuable research on the broad topic of neurodevelopment, psychological issues and psychosocial care.
The deadline for abstract submission is 22 February 2026. Please submit a structured abstract (250 maximal word count) via this email: AEPC_Zurich@kispi.uzh.ch
