Format
This unique training opportunity features a distinguished international faculty to discuss important topics around therapeutics during pregnancy, the perinatal period, and in children. Presently, the pregnant mother and her unborn or newborn infant are rarely included in therapeutic studies, leading to "orphaning" from the benefits of drug therapy. The main objective of the Summer Institute is to foster the development of a critical mass of researchers in this neglected area. The course format will combine expert lectures with small-group interactions and hands-on learning to encourage problem-based learning. The course includes preparatory work and assignments, which will be sent to participants one month ahead of time.
