The Freiburg Center for Pediatrics is pleased to announce that, despite the pandemic, we are able to follow up the successful Freiburg Pediatric Research Days 2018 & 2019 with a Freiburg Pediatric Research Afternoon on Wednesday 21 July 2021 from 13.30 to 17.00 in hybrid format. This event will offer a forum for lively discussion about current research activities at the Center for Pediatrics and beyond. We have an exciting mixture of internal and external speakers planned.

Due to the current restrictions, the event will take place in hybrid format (online/in person). The preliminary program is below or you can download it here.
