ESG/SEG Copenhagen 8-11 September 2011! Copenhagen is proud to host the 9th congress of The European Society of Gynecology, which will take place 08 – 11 September 2011 at the newly constructed Tivoli Congress Center. On Wednesday 07 September experts from all over Europe have organized an exciting range of pre-congress workshops. The updated scientific program is available at: www.SEG2011.com. The scientific programme was planned by the ESG/SEG Scientific Advisory Board together with the Local Organizing Committee and based upon invaluable advice and help from the Chairpersons. The Chairpersons represent an outstanding panel of European/Nordic expertise and their consultative efforts have resulted in an imminent selection of speakers who will ensure a successful scientific outcome. The congress will be a platform which allows for the instantaneous sharing of pertinent information with colleagues, from the entire OB/GYN community. Included in the programme are Young Scientists Oral and Poster sessions and an award will be given out to the best paper presented. Via the UEMS (European Union of Medical Specialists) Continuous Medical Education European (CME) credits will be valid in all European Community Countries. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you to the 9th congress of The European Society of Gynecology in Copenhagen in September 2011 with its unique mixes of varied contributions from plenary sessions, plenary lectures, debates and special sessions arranged by different Societies.
