The International World of Microbiome Conference (WoM 2022) is set to take place on 28-30 April, 2022 in Vienna, Austria. This unique event provides a platform for both inter-disciplinary and basic-clinical exchange that enables high-level discussion and pushes forward meaningful research in microbiome science.
The two prior WoM events have been enthusiastically received and fostered many collaborations between specialists around the world. The upcoming third edition of the Conference will introduce a new Zone to our World – in addition to WoM: Pregnancy, Birth & Infancy (PBI) and WoM: Digestive & Metabolic Health (DMH) we are adding WoM: Oral.

3 Zones • 1 Exhibition • All the Experts

This year the program is based on three carefully curated learning and networking zones to advance research, understanding & application in the world of microbiome.
These zones are specifically designed to bring the latest insights in each topic, highlight the interrelations between all of them and foster collaboration among clinicians, researchers, and the industry.

The World of Microbiome Series, by GEMS, is growing and in 2022 is bringing not only the 3rd edition of the successful World of Microbiome: Pregnancy, Birth & Infancy conference and the 2nd edition of the World of Microbiome: Digestive & Metabolic Health, but also a brand-new topic: World of Microbiome: Oral.

2021-11-25 - 2021-11-27 | Royal Golden Jubilee Building, Soi Phetchaburi 47, Bang Kapi, Bang Kapi District, Bangkok, 10310, Thailand
The 7th Biennial Meeting of the Asian Society of Gynecologic Oncology (ASGO 2021) will be held on November 25th to 27th in Bangkok! ASGO was established by leaders of Japanese and Korean gynecologists in consideration of the need for an Asian regional society dedicated to gynecologic cancer, and held its first meeting in Seoul in 2008. At present, gynecological oncology societies from 11 countries and regions are participating, and it has become a truly unified organization. While six biennial meetings and six international workshops have been held so far, ASGO 2021 is the first biennial meeting to be held outside of Japan and Korea, which makes it very significant. Furthermore, ASGO 2021 may be the first ever congress in the history of ASGO, which is difficult to steer and take measures to combat COVID-19. Now is the time to take pride in the unity of Asian countries and to show the world the development of gynecological oncology in Asia.

Empowered through Patient Advocacy
Through advocacy, survivors/patients, caregivers, families, and communities worldwide are empowered. We will share examples—as inspiration and how-to examples—of patient advocacy in action. Powerful!

IGCS 2021
2021-08-30 - 2021-09-02 | Online Meeting
The 2021 IGCS Annual Global Meeting is scheduled to be held in on August 30 – September 2 as a fully virtual meeting. It is out of an abundance of caution and concern for the safety of our international delegates that we have reached the decision to transition the IGCS 2021 Annual Global Meeting, initially planned as a hybrid meeting, to a virtual format only.
IGCS 2021 has been planned as a hybrid event from the beginning, with a strong virtual component for our remote delegates. With the IGCS 2021 Annual Global Meeting becoming fully virtual, you can still meet & network with friends and colleagues from around the globe using the virtual platform and view all the educational sessions and e-posters during the meeting and for 90 days after.
The decision came on August 4th from the IGCS leadership after it was determined that it would not be feasible to hold a meeting in person due to the recent changes in travel restrictions preventing many of our international speakers and attendees from traveling to and from Italy. An increasing number of countries are enforcing quarantine before and/or after traveling internationally and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in the US has issued a level 3 Travel Health Notice for Italy due to COVID-19, indicating a high level of cases in the country.
Please allow until August 6th to see website updates to igcs2021.com and igcs.org take effect regarding the change to a fully virtual meeting.
