National Pediatric Innovation Summit and Awards 2013
Host: Boston Children's Hospital
Taking on Tomorrow: A National Pediatric Innovation Summit + Awards 2013 When it comes to health care, what matters in pediatrics matters for everybody.

That makes pediatric care a hotbed for innovation, from personal genomics to digital apps and telemedicine programs that keep kids out of the hospital. Taking on Tomorrow will convene top thought leaders to distill the successes and address the tough challenges that continue to confront pediatric health care. Leading clinicians, scientists, engineers and leaders in industry, private equity and health care policy will engage in panels and "town hall" discussions-collectively taking on problems that no single organization, agency or company can solve alone.
