This seminar will focus on the challenging but important area of identifying and preventing such harm. Bringing together research teams from across the UK, and with a keynote address from WHO-Europe, it will focus on the latest evidence on how to appropriately identify and prevent alcohol consumption in pregnancy, and future innovation in this field. Speakers: Lisa Scholin (World Health Organisation); Dr Elizabeth Henderson and Dr Helen Mactier (Princess Royal Maternity Hospital, Glasgow); Dr Niamh Fitzgerald (University of Stirling); Prof Dave Tappin (University of Glasgow); Cheryl McQuire (Cardiff University); Helen Howlett (Northumbria University); Dr Andrew Symon (University of Dundee).
