This session, organized by members of the Pediatric Rehabilitation Special Interest Group of ISPRM, would be our first official academic gathering. We propose a 2-hour session featuring discussions on two high-yield topics in our specialty:

1. Early clinical diagnosis of cerebral palsy and evidence-based practical early intervention approaches for its treatment, as it applies to Low and Middle Income countries and High Income Countries.

2. Rehabilitation for pediatric patients with cancers including the comprehensive rehabilitation for neuro-oncology patients, posterior fossa syndrome, diagnosis and treatment of muscle wasting and steroid myopathy.

This session will be of particular interest to pediatric rehabilitation physicians and adult providers working in cancer rehabilitation. We plan to conclude with an open discussion on the future direction of the Pediatric Rehabilitation Special Interest Group of ISPRM and subsequent meeting planning.
