A morbidity and mortality conference is like a very serious and important meeting where doctors and healthcare professionals get together to talk about what happened when someone didn't get better or even died. The doctors and healthcare professionals want to make sure that they did everything they could to help the person and also want to learn from what happened so that they can do better in the future. They discuss things like what went wrong, what could have been done differently, and how they can prevent it from happening again. It's kind of like a group of people trying to solve a really hard puzzle together to make sure that people stay healthy and safe.
