Every Thursday, Noon ET
The Newborn Brain Society Educational Committee began its educational newborn brain webinars in 2020, and since then we’ve seen over 35,000 attendees.
Our live webinars are led by international experts in the field of neonatal neurology, neonatology, and pediatric neurology – neonatologists, neonatal neurologists, APRNS, PAs, nurses, allied health professionals, and trainees are welcome to join! Those attending our live sessions on Thursdays qualify to receive ACCME and ANCC credits.
NBS members can stream previous lectures through their member portal while everyone has access to the latest webinar on our website.

NBS Webinar Teaching Modules
The generous participation of speakers at our regular Thursday NBS webinar series have led to a wealth of videos that contain valuable, up to date information and knowledge about caring for the neonatal brain. We have capitalized on this vast video library to develop online educational modules that group webinar recordings around specific themes. Videos are then followed by helpful quizzes to test your knowledge. These educational modules are developed to intersect with the Neonatal Neurocritical Care curriculum and can be used for general review, test prep, or to supplement training courses.
