Emips Conference 2025
The Emips conference 2025 is now over for another year having taken place on a beautiful and sunny autumnal day at the Leicester Tigers Stadium on the 23 September 2025. We had a fantastic programme of talks covering the diverse work that has been happening right across the region over the past year, as well as updates from the School of Paediatrics itself and its education committees.
