In January we mentioned that we were looking forward to the 19th FIGO World Congress
of Gynecology and Obstetrics in Cape Town, South Africa. Now, with the Congress only
a few weeks away, the size of the undertaking is clear. The organisers are expecting
more than 6000 delegates and the scientific programme (available at www.figo2009.org.za) is 86 pages long, with a list of topics ranging from molecular biology to orgasmic
dysfunction. Without an early breakthrough in human cloning it will be impossible
to attend all the simultaneous sessions. Nevertheless the theme of international collaboration
to improve womens’ health runs through the meeting, from the first lecture on Monday
morning to the last sessions on Friday. We hope these discussions will boost existing
partnerships and stimulate new ones.
