Welcome to the McMaster Child Health Conference website!
|
We are a group of student leaders from McMaster University with a passion for child and youth development. We believe that it is our collective responsibility to ensure that all children receive the best possible start in life. This begins with inspiring you, the student community, the professionals, policymakers, and parents of tomorrow. The McMaster Child Health Conference aims to integrate academics with practical experience by sparking discussion between student delegates, faculty, professionals, and researchers who work with children. This annual research symposium was founded in 2016 from a group of Bachelor of Health Sciences students specializing in Child Health. |
