Message from the Conference Chairman
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
It is with great pleasure and honour that I invite you to attend the second Mediclinic Abu Dhabi Paediatric Conference (MPCAD) on 20th April 2024, at Sofitel Corniche Abu Dhabi UAE.
This conference will provide an opportunity for lecturers and attendees to discuss the new updates in many fields of paediatrics, neonatology and paediatric subspecialities. Your international and local colleagues and I will be speaking in small lectures to remind us about the basics of paediatrics and to keep us updated about the new guidelines in practice.
This conference will offer many comprehensive and educational lectures about different aspects of paediatrics, including general paediatrics, paediatric allergy, endocrinology, ophthalmology, cardiology, pulmonology, neurology, haematology, nephrology, gastroenterology, nutrition, as well as paediatric surgery and emergencies, and the new era in artificial intelligence in paediatrics.
The conference is open to a variety of attendees, including physicians (paediatricians, neonatologist, paediatric subspecialists, family medicine, GPs, and ER physicians), as well as nurses, educators, pharmacists, interns, medical students, and other healthcare workers interested in paediatrics.
This year the MPCAD will be for one day, yet I am confidant and ambitious in future to expand it and make it for more than one day, which will enable us to bring numerous interesting topics in paediatrics to the agenda through interaction with attendees, lectures about the updated knowledge in paediatrics, and case presentations from professional speakers.
Your attendance is highly appreciated. Warm Greetings,
Dr. Ahmed Mohamed Abdelaal
Consultant General Paediatrics
