Content and teaching methods

Varied topics of infantile psychopathology are approached, by taking care of their "daily" dimension, i.e. with the fact that they are likely to be presented at the cabinet of the general practitioner and the pediatrists, and that they are likely to be treated by those, at least partly. The nature of the topics approached is variable in reference to cases presented. We center us on the clinical location, some large etiopathogenic's mechanisms, and on the components of the treatment in first line.
