Invitation Letter
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to the 15th International Workshop on Neonatology to be held in Cagliari, Italy. This follows the success of
the previous editions which saw the overall presence of about 10,000 participants. This 15th Workshop is an important milestone and
is accompanied by recognition by many national and international scientific societies. Some of the world’s most renowned specialists
from more than 50 different countries have been present in Cagliari in these years. They have created a network of scientific and human
relations that have changed, improved and enriched us all. This year the meeting is followed by the 40th Congress of the Union of Middle-
Eastern and Mediterranean Pediatric Societies (UMEMPS), founded 60 years ago. The title of the workshop, “Children of the Middle-
Eastern and Mediterranean area: we can do better!” underscores the trajectory that assistance, research and teaching will follow in the
coming years, in an integrated way with adult medicine. A view into the future of perinatology and paediatrics through debates and
shared experiences. This year the proceedings of the Workshop will be published in the “Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized
Medicine” (JPNIM), which is now also indexed in Scopus and Web of Science, official Journal of UENPS (Union European Neonatal and
Perinatal Societies), UMEMPS (Union Middle-Eastern and Mediterranean Pediatric Societies) and Portuguese Society of Neonatology. In
past years the journals were “Medical and Surgical Pediatrics”, “Journal of Chemotherapy”, “Journal of Maternal Fetal Neonatal Medicine”,
“Clinica Chimica Acta” and JPNIM. Over the years, the Workshop has made its impression on science and has promoted a lively discussion
in an always serene and extremely constructive atmosphere. This year’s meeting is organized in collaboration with UMEMPS and the
following Societies: European Association of Perinatal Medicine (EAPM), Union of European Neonatal and Perinatal Societies (UENPS),
Italian-Arabian Pediatric Society, SI-DOHaD (Società Italiana Developmental Origins of Health and Disease), SIRP (Italian-Romanian
Pediatric Society). The meeting is dedicated to neonatologists, pediatricians, obstetricians, perinatologists, pathologists, laboratory
researchers, pediatric cardiologists and all those who work with the newborns. Great attention will be devoted to young specialists: in
the last few years the events have been extended through presentation of numerous selected posters for each meeting and numerous
prizes of 500 euros have been awarded for the best contributions (this year we have 3 prizes). We look forward to welcoming you to this
traditional appointment to discuss topics of the present and keep us up to date on the latest results, both in clinical practice and research
in neonatology and pediatrics.
