It is with great enthusiasm that we invite you to the 2022 Provincial Mother-Child Research Conference, which will make its return to the Université de Montréal campus, after two years in distance mode! The Perinatal Determinants of Child Health Research Network will host the first part of the conference on Thursday morning.

During this half-day scientific session, we would like to introduce you to the main perinatal cohorts in Quebec. Several guests will present an overview of their current projects, followed by a panel discussion moderated by the network directors.

The objective of this congress is to :

  • To facilitate the meeting and sharing between researchers and students in the field of mother-child research;
  • To offer participants the opportunity to become familiar with new research themes and disciplines;
