Nicklaus Children's Hospital Symposium

"Words cannot express how memorable this event was--from interacting with the professionals, listening to their presentations, participating at the round tables and to being welcomed as part of the family. This was my first time attending a symposium and I was amazed. It was an honor to be in the same room with the Doctors and RDNs. I highly recommend students to attend the next symposium (September 2026), and network. Thank you to everyone who made the participation of my fellow classmates and that of mine possible. "

"Attending the symposium filled my heart with so much joy and passion! Seeing RDNs be so welcoming made me less nervous about joining the field. I look forward to being one of them and encouraging future RD2Bes!"

"Going to the symposium helped me have a better idea of what the future holds for a clinical dietitian in pediatrics. I really enjoy the kindness all the RD’s showed the FIU students, you can tell they love what they do!"
~Candela Giacchino
