Conference Title: How to Improve Children's Health - Putting Research Into Practice

"There is a growing knowledge of the complex interplay between psychosocial events and biological factors, and we now understand that events that occur as a fetus and in early life play a fundamental part in later life, and indeed in the lives of future generations...The challenge for us as a society is how to harness this evidence and momentum and turn it into improved outcomes for our current and future generations of children and young people."
