Event, Academia Broadway Bites: From First Breath to Long-Term Health
In this edition of our monthly seminar series in Boston, Swiss researcher Leandra Ramin-Wright presents her work on long-term pulmonary health outcomes.
Info & tickets
Research has played a central role in improving child health over the past decade, contributing to dramatic reductions in under-five mortality. Yet important questions remain: How does cesarean delivery shape pulmonary adaptation at birth? How can we better detect and manage chronic lung disease in the neonatal intensive care unit? And what strategies can improve long-term pulmonary outcomes for children, especially in resource-limited settings?
In this evening edition of Broadway Bites, Leandra Ramin-Wright – a postdoctoral research fellow at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School and a Master of Public Health candidate at Harvard – will present her work on pulmonary health from childhood onward.
Broadway Bites is a monthly seminar series at Swissnex, bringing guest speakers from our global network to give a short talk on their work.
Snacks and drinks will be provided.
