The Center for Pediatric Pain, Palliative and Integrative Medicine has a Global Lecture Series. As part of this series a monthly seminar takes place that is open for anyone to attend, but registration is required.
The Asian Society of Paediatric Anaesthetists Paediatric Pain Special Interest Group (ASPA PPSIG): PPSIG – Asian Society of Paediatric Anaesthesiologists has quarterly webinars on paediatric pain management in the Asian region. This group draws our speakers from the Asian region, so not much on research, more clinical work, but likely applicable to many LMIC or low resourced areas.
