About ESPR

European Society Paediatric Research (ESPR) was founded in 1953, and is one of the oldest European societies. ESPR initially started as a club for Pediatricians especially interested in research in children, which then evolved to become the ESPR.

We are about 500 members, mostly doctors caring for children oriented towards research, which may improve child health, we organize an open conference somewhere in Europe every year.

The ESPR in collaboration with the SPR (Society for Paediatric Research) owns the journal Pediatric Research that now, is ranked as the second important Pediatric journal based on the impact factor.
