About Our Conference
Each Wednesday, the Department of Pediatrics offers learning opportunities for pediatric professionals throughout the community - both inside and outside the University.
Pediatric Grand Rounds is designed to improve the broad practice of pediatric medicine, including patient care, healthcare research, medical education, public health, and innovation.
Grand Rounds sessions are open to the public, and most presentation materials are posted here for review. CME credits are available to those who watch live (either online or in-person), and breakfast is provided to in-person attendees during hybrid sessions.

Hosting information
Pediatric Grand Rounds has shifted to be held primarily online. The Grand Rounds team has reserved the Wilf Family Center conference rooms 1 & 2 should the hosting division choose to host in a hybrid capacity. All coordination of food, invitations, speaker accommodations, etc. is the responsibility of the division. The Grand Rounds team must be notified at least 2 weeks prior to the session in order to offer on-site support with technology.
