We launched The Australian Perinatal Epidemiology Update (APEU) in 2022 and following its success we’re thrilled to bring this event to Melbourne. This two day conference will be held just prior to the Global Obstetric Update on the 18th and 19th of November at the beautiful Park Hyatt. 

At APEU we welcome clinicians and researchers in maternity care and last time attracted a wide audience of epidemiologists, clinical trialists, pregnancy researchers, obstetricians, midwives, GPs, trainees, neonatologists, and allied health professionals.

We have a stellar line up of international, interstate and local speakers. Together they will be covering clinically based research that aims to improve the health of mothers and babies.
