2024 programme
Download the Neonatal Update 2024 Programme (PDF)
Neonatal Update is an established annual event produced by Imperial College London. It has origins in a meeting established over 40 years ago and is renowned for its innovative programme incorporating contributions from a wide range of world-leading scientists and clinical researchers. The aim is to introduce delegates to areas of science not necessarily met in their day-to-day activities, to widen horizons and to foster new collaborations.
Neonatal Update is aimed at:
- Neonatal and paediatric clinicians and researchers
- Neonatal and paediatric trainees
- Advanced Neonatal Nurse Practitioners
- Neonatal nurses
The 2024 meeting will be a 4-day, fully in-person event to allow the best possible opportunity for knowledge sharing, discussion, and networking with the global neonatology peer group in the same space.
It will not be streamed live to a virtual audience during the week of the event. However, all presentations will be recorded to enable those unable to be in London access the content at a time of their own convenience. These recorded lectures are available to purchase now and will be ready to view online shortly after the meeting has taken place (approx mid-Dec 2024).
Continued Professional Development
The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) has approved this activity for CPD in accordance with the current RCPCH CPD Guidelines. Delegates may claim 1 point for each hour of teaching. The Neonatal Update 2024 programme offers 22 teaching hours/CPD points: Monday - 6hrs, Tuesday - 7hrs, Wednesday - 4hrs, Thursday - 5hrs
Certificates of Attendance will be circulated to all in person delegates by email within two weeks of the meeting to aid self-assessment.
CPD points are also valid for digital delegates provided the content has been accessed and watched within 3 months of the meeting - i.e. by 28 February 2025. Certificates will only be issued in the name of the registered delegate who logged in to view the content.

Previous delegate feedback:
“This is the conference that has most influenced how I practise and think about neonatology both as a clinician and in my ministry role. It provides much more than just a ‘nuts and bolts' update"
