The latest on corona and children, child protection, climate change, classic infections, the digitization of medicine or the often radically different world of young people – the program offers a wealth of topics that have not only shaped the medical world in recent months.
The congress will open as a hybrid event on Thursday, October 7, 2021. The plenary sessions, symposia and sessions in the “HUB27” on the Berlin exhibition grounds can be experienced online on up to 5 channels simultaneously as a live stream.
The congress is a meeting of specialists for the health of children and adolescents: In 2021 the German Society for Child and Adolescent Medicine (DGKJ) will meet under the direction of Prof. Dr. Hermann Josef Girschick from Berlin together with the German Society for Social Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine (DGSPJ), the German Society for Pediatric Surgery (DGKCH), the Professional Association for Child Nursing Germany (BeKD), the Society for Child and Adolescent Rheumatology (GKJR) and the Society for Pediatrics Radiology (GPR).
Common focus areas:
