- Keynote: Dr Masson will review the latest research and highlight common medical interventions that affect the microbiome negatively, and will offer alternative, microbiome-friendly, options.

That is why it is imperative to provide paediatric care that supports a healthy microbiome, and avoid lifestyle choices, medications, and interventions that harm it.
