Paediatric Research for the Future of Children (PRFC): A Global Forum
Welcome Letter by the Chairs of the Organising Committee
Dear Colleagues, dear friends,
It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the Paediatric Research for the Future of Children (PRFC): A Global Forum, taking place in the vibrant city of Geneva from 11-13 February 2026.
As organising committee chairs, we are thrilled to bring together leading paediatric researchers, clinicians, innovators, and institutional stakeholders from around the globe to discuss the latest advances and challenges in paediatric research and child health.
PRFC 2026 is a unique forum dedicated to fostering collaboration and advancing science for the benefit of children worldwide. In an era of rapid innovation and unprecedented global challenges, we believe this gathering is more crucial than ever. By focusing on the intersection of groundbreaking research, clinical practice, and forward-looking strategies, the summit aims to inspire transformative solutions that will shape the future of paediatric care.
This year's programme features an exceptional lineup of keynote speakers and expert panels designed to spark meaningful discussions and foster knowledge exchange. From cutting-edge discoveries to practical applications, the global forum is an opportunity to engage with leading voices in the field and explore ways to address pressing issues in paediatric health.
Our venue, Campus Biotech, offers an inspiring and dynamic setting for our discussions. Situated in the heart of Geneva, this hub of innovation perfectly complements the forward-thinking mission of the PRFC Summit.
We are also excited to host a series of networking events, including the opening cocktail reception and an evening gathering, designed to cultivate connections and collaborations that extend far beyond this event.
We are deeply grateful to all participants, speakers, and supporters who contribute to making this summit a reality. Your dedication and passion for improving the lives of children inspire us all.
We look forward to meeting each of you, exchanging ideas, and working together to shape a brighter future for paediatric health.
Warm regards,
Petra Hueppi, Ann Chahroudi, and Lois Lee
