This year, the Department of Pediatrics took 49 attendees to the Pediatric Academic Societies Annual Meeting held in Boston, MA. UTHealth Houston faculty and trainees gave 11 platform presentations and either authored or co-authored more than 40 posters displayed during the conference. We also had great engagement at the exhibitor booth, which served as a hub for new connections, a place to receive a wealth of information, a brief rest stop for attendees, and a space for happy reunions with alumni.

The Department hosted a reception at Davio’s Steakhouse in the historic North End on Sunday evening for all attendees and guests.

We were also thrilled to distribute UTHealth Houston-branded materials to potential recruits, like this very creative future McGovern student. (Photo by Maha Kaissi, MD, MHPE, FAAP)
