Prematurity and low birth weight remain major areas of neonatal research because of their association with short-term complications and long-term developmental challenges. This session examines strategies for improving survival, growth, neurological development, and quality of life among vulnerable newborns. Researchers can explore neonatal interventions, developmental follow-up, and factors influencing outcomes after discharge. Special attention can be given to extremely preterm infants and infants with very low birth weight. Multidisciplinary follow-up and early intervention are important components of long-term care. The session encourages collaboration among neonatologists, developmental specialists, researchers, and pediatric healthcare professionals.
