Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the organizing committee we are delighted to welcome and invite you for the 17th Annual Conference of the Women’s Cancer Initiative - Tata Memorial Hospital to be held from 18th - 20th October 2019 at R. D. Choksi Auditorium, Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai.

The theme of this conference is Great Debates in Gynecological Oncology - The Search for Diamonds in the Forest. In this 3 day meeting, there will be thought provoking debates, didactic lectures and case scenario discussions by national and international recognized leaders in the field of Gynaec-Oncology. The agenda will feature mix of clinical updates on provocative scientific topics and throw light on difficult and challenging day to day clinical practice of gynecological cancers. The meeting will also try to bring out the nuances in interpretation of various clinical trials, the practical meaning of the forest plots and how these can be translated into clinical use for patient management.

Through comprehensive review of the latest clinical advancements in gynecological malignancies, robust audience engagement, and ample discussion, participants will leave equipped with practical implications and applications to put into practice.

We have invited abstracts for poster & oral presentations which will give the glimpse of research happening in India which is equally important and meaningful for our practice. There is opportunity for budding doctors to participate in various contests.

We invite all the participants to send us controversial topics, cases and questions which you think should be discussed at this conference. We would like to request you all to circulate this flyer in various groups and forums, amongst your friends and colleagues to help us popularize this conference.

WCI-TMH annual conference has been at the forefront of bringing together best of scientific content and as part of this year’s program committee we will put our best foot forward to make this conference worthy of your time.

We look forward to your presence and collaboration to make this year’s conference a grand success.
