SUMMARY:IGCS 2021
DESCRIPTION: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. \nIGCS 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. \nThe 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. \nPlease allow until August 6th to see website updates to igcs2021.com and igcs.org take effect regarding the change to a fully virtual meeting.

SUMMARY:IGCS 2020 Annual Global Meeting
DESCRIPTION:June 1\, 2020 \nDear Colleague\, \nLike many of you\, the International Gynecologic Cancer Society (IGCS) leadership has been monitoring COVID-19 over the last several months. We are aware of the challenging times and our primary concern is for the health and safety of those of you in the global gynecologic oncology community who attend the IGCS Annual Global Meeting and of course the patients you serve. \nThe IGCS Council has decided that the best course of action is to postpone our previous plans to gather in Rome and to conduct the 2020 IGCS Annual Global Meeting as a fully digital meeting. \nWe are now re-launching the IGCS Annual Global Meeting\, scheduled for September 10-13\, 2020 utilizing innovative “xDigital” technology designed by our new service provider\, iCrossing. \nDuring this challenging time\, we believe it is important now more than ever for health care professionals\, survivors\, and caregivers as well as our industry colleagues to come together on our new digital platform. We are committed to provide our members and delegates around the world with targeted educational programming\, the latest scientific research in gynecologic cancers\, and interactive networking opportunities. We have put a lot of thought and consideration into re-engineering IGCS 2020 with xDigital technology and are proud to bring you an enhanced experience that you can join from the comfort of your home or office. \nContributions of speakers\, authors\, and the work of the Scientific Program Committee will be realized in the xDigital environment\, and abstracts will be published in the digital congress portal as well as the International Journal of Gynecological Cancer. We are committed to delivering industry symposia at our continued high level of engagement and to finding innovative and unique ways for participants to engage with industry and IGCS in our digital exhibition hall. \nPlease visit the meeting website to learn more about the IGCS xDigital Annual Global Meeting. Registration and abstract submission are now open! Abstracts will be accepted through July 15th. \nwww.igcsmeeting.com \nIt is important for the gynecologic oncology community to come together and continue to share research\, experiences\, and ideas and gather inspiration for the sake of caring for patients with gynecologic malignancies. IGCS has always served to unite the globe in the fight against gynecologic cancers and while we cannot be together face to face this year\, we can still gather in this new way to present and hear the latest scientific research\, discuss and share ideas\, and connect with old friends while having the opportunity to meet new ones. \nProf. Roberto Angioli\nIGCS President \nProfs.

SUMMARY:IGCS 2019
DESCRIPTION:Following the tradition of previous meetings\, IGCS 2019 will provide you with the opportunity to learn about the latest clinical advances as well as international developments in research\, practice and treatment for of women with gynecological cancer. \nIn the Global Meeting\, IGCS has teamed up with national and regional societies\, such as FEBRASGO\, in offering a comprehensive program that covers the latest\, cutting edge information including innovative developments in surgery\, chemotherapy\, radiotherapy\, and pathology. This Meeting is multi-disciplinary and draws on expertise from throughout the world. 2019 will be the first annual meeting for the IGCS and with this change includes the goal\, as set by the IGCS Council\, to further internationalize the meeting and restructure the Scientific Program Committee. Regional chairs from the major areas of the world have been assigned and those chairs have created committees within their region. This restructuring allows for equal representation in the planning and execution of the meeting which in turn will allow greater opportunity to participate and share scientific contributions to the meeting. \nThis truly international committee of world-class experts in gynecological oncology is developing a scientific program that will cover a broad range of topics. We will focus on presenting state-of-the-art lectures and the research on relevant topics from all over the globe that will provide interactive sessions and the opportunity to exchange ideas. Topics related to low and middle income country problems will be addressed extensively including educational challenges and best utilization of limited resources. \nRio de Janeiro\, or simply Rio\, is one of the most beautiful cities in South America. Its stunning nature and the unique combination of mountain landscape and gorgeous beach front are what makes the city truly unique. It’s not surprising that part of Rio is protected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. The breath-taking scenery and natural beauty are not the only experiences the city has to offer. Dynamic samba\, melodic bossa nova\, museums\, and heart-warming hospitality from the locals are what makes the experience in this Brazilian gem of a city unforgettable. \nWe very much look forward to your participation in IGCS 2019 and to welcoming you to Rio. \nSincerely\, \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nProf. Roberto Angioli\nIGCS President \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nProf. Nadeem Abu-Rustum\nChair\, IGCS 2019 Scientific Program Committee
