Seattle Children’s Pediatric Mental and Behavioral Health Research Summit
Seattle Children’s Research Institute will host its second annual Pediatric Mental and Behavioral Health Research Summit, focusing on suicide and self-harm prevention.
The summit will highlight Seattle Children’s research presenting new discoveries and proven interventions designed to save youth lives. Through a mix of scientific presentations, panel discussions and professional networking, the summit aims to foster the partnerships necessary to move from evidence to action.
The summit keynote speaker is Jeff Bridge, PhD, an epidemiologist and director of the Center for Suicide Prevention and Research in the Abigail Wexner Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. His research focuses on the epidemiology of suicide and suicidal behavior in young people; neurocognitive vulnerability to suicidal behavior; screening for suicide risk in medical and school settings; and improving the quality of care for suicidal youth.
Join us as we translate latest findings into life-saving support for youth and families facing self-harm and suicide. We welcome researchers, healthcare providers, policymakers, students and community members to the conversation.

This year’s conference will focus on issues at the heart of pediatrics: the relief of suffering, maintenance of hope and promotion of flourishing of children and their families. Bioethics and palliative care share these commitments, yet they sometimes bring different perspectives on how best to achieve them.
We will explore questions that arise at the intersection of pediatrics bioethics and palliative care, identifying areas of controversy and of synergy. In an era of rapid technological, financial and social change, this conference will provide space for thoughtful dialogue about the ethical challenges and opportunities shaping the future of pediatric care.
Join us as we explore the ethical questions that shape how we care, communicate and find meaning in the lives of children and families facing serious illness.
