ONLINE ZOOM MEETING: EGA Institute for Women's Health - 'Extraordinary' Conference 2020
04 Dec 2020, 09:00 – 17:00
Due to Covid-19 we had to cancel our IfWH Annual Conference in July this year but we decided to run an ‘Extraordinary’ Conference remotely, in which has been a very ‘Extraordinary’ year.
This year the format will include oral presentations from IfWH/UCLH Researchers presenting their work, and undergoing a Q&A session. Presentations will be judged by our panel, and prizes awarded for the overall best performances.
In addition to this, as like every year, we will have our poster presentations and prizes, again run remotely, as well as highlights from our Institute staff of the high profile research that has been undertaken.
Furthermore, this year we will be hosting a Debate and two Key Note Lectures from externally invited speakers of clinical and academic backgrounds.
Details regarding the Key Note Lectures can be found below.

Registration via Eventbrite.
