April 2nd – Autism Awareness Day

This day is #AutismAwareness Day. To measure the success of our societies, we should examine how well those with different abilities, including persons with autism, are integrated as full and valued members. A good starting point is the Autism Clinical Overview on Clinical Key.


April 7th  – World Health Day

The topic of #WorldHealthDay in 2023 is Health for All and it will be a special one, as the World Health Organization will observe its 75th anniversary. At Elsevier Health, our goal is to improve outcomes for the benefit of every patient; therefore we invite you to visit Clinical Overviews, available on Clinical Key.


April 11th  – World Parkinson’s Awareness Day
