About Us

The mission of the Eastern Society for Pediatric Research (ESPR) is to foster the development of multidisciplinary careers promoting pediatric research.

Our goal is to provide investigators (especially trainees and junior faculty members) of all races, ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations, gender identities, and abilities with an opportunity to meet and present their research for critical review and feedback.

"ESPR has been instrumental in supporting our pediatric research, offering a platform for both basic science and translational research."
"As a member from New York, I value the opportunity to connect with colleagues from across the northeastern region of North America."
"Many of today’s leading physician-scientists, including myself, started their careers with ESPR and have benefited from its supportive environment."
"The ESPR Scientific Meeting each March is a fantastic venue for early career researchers to present their work in a friendly, less formal setting."
"With affordable dues, ESPR is accessible for both new and long-term members, making it a great resource throughout one's career."
