Join global experts in severe acute malnutrition (SAM) treatment to learn and discuss the latest research results on SAM recovery and post-discharge outcomes from new multi-country panel study. Learn first findings from nested sub-studies on how microbiome, enteric infection, immune function, WASH, seasonality, context, costing, and geospatial factors relate to SAM recovery and relapse. Discuss whether and when SAM relapse is a problem, what is and is not driving sustained recovery, financial implications, and more.
