The Nestlé Nutrition Institute (NNI) and Wyeth Nutrition Science Center (WNSC) invite you to the symposium titled “Nurturing Potential: How Nutrition and HMOs Shape the Future of Preterm Infants,” taking place on October 22 from 12:45 to 1:45 PM at the 6th Congress of Joint European Neonatal Studies in Belgrade, Serbia.

This event gathers leading experts to share the latest research and clinical strategies for optimizing nutrition and improving outcomes for preterm infants, from early life through the post-discharge period. Professor Nadja Haiden emphasizes the critical importance of post-discharge nutritional management, highlighting breastfeeding, nutritional and growth monitoring, tailored nutrient supplementation, and evidence-based complementary feeding to support long-term outcomes in this vulnerable population. Dr. Boutania Zemrani discusses the potential benefits of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) for preterm infants, focusing on their role in supporting immune function, promoting gut health, and improving developmental outcomes, along with emerging evidence on HMO supplementation and its clinical applications.

Join us to gain valuable insights that equip healthcare professionals with the knowledge and tools to optimize nutritional care for preterm infants at every stage of their journey, laying the foundation for healthier growth, stronger immunity, and improved developmental outcomes.
