Inaugural Pediatric Grand Rounds

This was mentioned in the comments here, but I wanted to draw attention to it in a main post as well. Clark has started a new carnival for pediatric health issues. As he notes:

A popular saying in pediatrics is that children aren't just little adults. The wisdom of taking this to heart when approaching all aspects of pediatric health becomes clearer every day as I progress through my training. Kids are unique and have health issues every bit as interesting and complex as adults, and the people who raise, counsel, and treat them deserve a forum to discuss these issues. I had the idea to start a pediatric version of Grand Rounds a couple of weeks ago and I received some great submissions that are a solid foundation to build on.

As a mom and a researcher who works with several pathogens that disproportionately affect the kiddies, it sounds like a good idea to me! The first offering was posted yesterday; check it out.
