On 7 and 8 February were held the 18th INMA Scientific Conference 2023 where the teams of the different cohorts of the project have met: INMA-Ribera d’Ebre, INMA-Menorca, INMA-Granada, INMA-Valencia, INMA-Sabadell, INMA-Asturias and INMA-Gipuzkoa.

During the conferences have been presented the results of the various studies under the INMA Project and we have had plenary sessions by both national and international speakers of recognized prestige. Dr. Miquel Casas (Hospital de Sant Joan de Déu. Barcelona) delighted us with the talk entitled “Neurodevelopmental Disorders, Academic Performance and Behavioural Problems in Childhood and Adolescence“, Dr. Xavier Basagaña (ISGlobal) enlightened us with the session “Formative pill: The statistical challenges of working with multiple correlated exposures“, and Dr. Kate Northstone (ALSPAC) fascinated us with her talk “The Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC): Three decades of follow-up“.

The meeting ended with the conference “How is time measured and what are the temporal perspectives of environmental health?” given by Dr. Joan Grimalt, from the Institute for Environmental Assessment and Water Research (IDAEA) – Spanish National Research Council (CSIC).

We have had 136 registered participants, 83 of them participated in person and 53 followed the conference via Streaming.

Congratulations to all for this successful conference!
