15 year anniversary, EGA Institute for Women's Health,UCL
This conference in 2019 will be a celebration to mark 15 years since the EGA Institute for Women's Health was founded.  We will be using a similar format to previous years in that we will be showcasing high-quality research undertaken by EGA Institute for Women's Health and UCLH Women's Health Division.  Particular emphasis will be on achievements over the last 15 years and looking forward to how we can develop these over the next 15 years.

This year's conference will include presentations from our early-career researchers from within the institute and division.

We will also be hosting external key note speakers, as well as special lectures from our clinical and academic staff.

Prizes and awards will be presented by Professor Anna David (Director, Institute for Women's Health).
