The European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) is one of the most influential events in pediatric health, bringing together leading experts to exchange knowledge, foster collaboration, and drive innovation in gastrointestinal tract, liver, and nutritional research.
As a global leader in nutrition and children’s health, Danone Research & Innovation is honored to take part in ESPGHAN once again, contributing to the scientific discussion by bringing forward new advances in the field.
Our experts will be presenting their latest findings and engaging with the research and healthcare community in Helsinki, Finland from 14th until the 17th of May 2025.
For this edition, 25 of our study abstracts have been accepted for presentation. These studies cover key topics including iron, artificial intelligence, and C-section:
