Event Overview
Welcome message:
Following the enormous success of the 1st Congress on Controversies in Pediatrics (CoPedia),
which took place in April 2014 in Prague, Czech Republic, we invite you to attend and actively
participate in the next congress, to be held in Budapest, Hungary, April 16-19, 2015.
The field of Pediatrics is witnessing an enormous expansion in clinical and basic data. Conferences
are becoming more and more informative and there is limited time for thorough discussion.
The aim of CoPedia Congresses is to search for best fit answers and to reach current conclusions
to the ongoing debates in the field through evidence-based medicine.
The CoPedia scientific program deals with the most burning questions of our profession and
provides an effective forum for discussing and debating, by allowing ample time for speakeraudience
discussions.
The 2nd Congress aims to bridge the gap between the expansion of information and its consolidation
into clinical practice.

We look forward to welcoming you to Budapest in the year 2015.

Sincerely,
Ami Ballin, Paolo Lionetti, Gideon Koren, Gábor Veres
