Pediatric Neurocritical Care Symposium
In this annual conference, we are excited to bring together, virtually and in-person, the multidisciplinary pediatric neurocritical care community for a day of talks that crosses the spectrum of neurocritical care from the field, prior to admission to rehabilitation and follow-up. There will be featured topics on the neurocritical care of cardiac patients, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and outcomes.
