The second European transport of high risk neonates conference in Copenhagen 1-3 September 2016 saw the global family of experts and practitioners in this arena come together to share experiences and thinking.
I was there primarily as a delegate, but was allowed to film some of the talks to make them available as #FOAMneo #FOAMed. This will hopefully help maintain and qualify the online conversation about managing these critically ill neonates.
Find the official program here (pdf) and the official website here.
I was only equipped to record the main stage programme, detailed below. Talks will come online as single posts progressively as I process the material.
