Special Issue on Developmental Pediatrics

Developmental pediatrics is an academic discipline that focuses on the evaluation, diagnosis, and management of children with developmental delays and disabilities. It involves the study of typical and atypical child development, identifying developmental milestones, and addressing challenges through early intervention and therapeutic interventions. Developmental pediatricians collaborate with other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive care for children with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), developmental delays, and intellectual disabilities, aiming to optimize their long-term outcomes and quality of life.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on Developmental Pediatrics. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Infant and newborn development
• Neonatology and developmental biology
