SIPC has long been a cornerstone of pediatric excellence in the UAE, attracting leading experts from around the world. This year’s conference featured a distinguished panel of local and international faculty, all bringing years of experience from top pediatric institutions.

Dr. Felipe actively contributed to the conference by presenting in a panel discussion on “Machine Learning Models Implementation for Sepsis Prediction and Early Detection in Emergency Departments and Intensive Care Units.”

We look forward to continuing our engagement with such impactful global forums to drive progress in pediatric healthcare.
