journée annuelle ThéCell
Dear Friends and colleagues,
The CHU de Québec-Université Laval research center, in collaboration with the three other major pediatric research centers in Quebec, are pleased to announce that the fourth edition of the provincial conference on mother-child research will take place on the 29 and October 30, 2020 but in a virtual form! We would have been delighted to welcome you to Quebec city, but this decision is necessary to protect the participants and their families and participate in the collective effort to stop the spread of the COVID-19 virus while maintaining the objectives of the congress which are of:
- Allow exchanges between researchers and students around mother-child research;
- Facilitate the exposure of participants to new themes / research disciplines;
- Serve as a forum for disseminating the latest advances in mother-child research in Quebec. As such, a special COVID-19 session will be added to the program.
The conduct and conviviality of the congress will be preserved as much as possible. Thus, as previously announced, this year the congress is innovating by setting up a theme: decompartmentalized health.
From planning a pregnancy to the fetal period, from birth to early development of the child, to the adolescent and his or her behaviors, health cannot be understood outside of its broader context that includes environment, family, infrastructure and community. This research decompartmentalization, at the intersection of several individuals, ages and disciplines, facilitates the emergence of new knowledge, both in basic and clinical research. This is the only way to approach the complex problems and contemporary challenges in mother-child research
Dr Richard E. Bélanger
