1st Central European Symposium on Robotics in Children
Cracow, 9-10.05.2025
Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to invite you to Pediatronicus – 1st Central European Symposium on Robotics in Children, which will be held in Cracow on 9-10.05. It is the first conference of its kind in this part of Europe, dedicated to the use of robotics in pediatric medicine, bringing together distinguished lecturers from Poland and abroad.
The symposium will discuss the latest developments in robotic medicine in paediatrics, surgery, and urology, and will be a unique opportunity to exchange experiences, learn about innovative solutions, and to establish scientific cooperation at an international level.
I warmly invite you to Cracow, a city of rich history and academic traditions, to join us in shaping the future of robotics in pediatric care.
See you in Cracow!
Best regards,
