Many common physical and mental health conditions first appear in infancy and childhood, adversely affecting the experiences and future outcomes for children and young people.

However, the early years can also provide a crucial window for diagnosis, early treatment and other interventions that can improve outcomes and help prevent or reduce the impact of health conditions.

Join us at our Open Event at the NIHR Cambridge BRC and discover the latest breakthroughs in translational research for infants, children and young people from local researchers.

Talks will run for an hour, either in the afternoon (4-5pm) or evening (6-7pm) with the opportunity to chat with our researchers about their work and view the posters on display. Why not vote for your favourite poster while enjoying some light refreshments?

Our speakers

  • Dr. Anna Moore Winter, Assistant Professor in Child Psychiatry and Medical Informatics, Department of Psychiatry, University of Cambridge
  • Dr. Kate Baker, Programme Leader MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit, Assistant Professor of Clinical Genetics, Department of Pathology, Cambridge University Hospitals.
  • Dr. Chenqu Suo, NIHR Clinical Lecturer in Paediatrics, University of Cambridge

Book your preferred session

You only need to book one session to attend the talks and poster exhibition, as the talks are the same for the afternoon and evening slots: and you are welcome to stay for some or all of the hour (5-6pm) between talks to chat to researchers, view the posters and enjoy light refreshments.
