The European Society for Paediatric Research (ESPR) is a professional association of neonatal and paediatric researchers comprising different sub-specialties.[1][2] Together with its sister organisations, the American Pediatric Society (APS) and the Society for Pediatric Research (SPR), it publishes the peer-reviewed scientific journal Pediatric Research. The ESPR was founded in 1958.[3]

Mission and vision

The ESPR is a not-for-profit organisation and aims to promote paediatric research and post-graduate training in Europe. It encourages collaboration between the various specialised fields of paediatrics, with the goal of maintaining paediatrics as a unified, scientifically-orientated discipline. The mission of the ESPR is to develop and apply research to improve newborn and child health. In this way, the society seeks to provide the foundation for a healthy population in Europe and beyond.[4]
