Dear Colleague,

The Children’s Bioethics Centre at The Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne is calling for papers for its fourth annual Paediatric Bioethics Conference.

Conference Themes:

Abstracts should be approximately 250 words, list all authors and their affiliations, and indicate the presenting author in bold.
