WELCOME MESSAGE

Dear Colleagues,

Antonio Frega, Philip Davies and I, Cesare Gentili, are pleased to announce the XIIWorkshop of Lower Genital Tract Pathology which will be held in Rome from March5th to 7th 2015.

These Workshops have a unique multidisciplinary nature covering all disciplines re-lated to diseases of the lower genital tract.

The last Workshop was attended by over 500 participants from 39 countries and with55 speakers of international renown who maintained the participants’ interest forthe entire congress by delivering a challenging and comprehensive program. Wehave no doubt that the upcoming congress will be an even bigger success.

For 2015, we have made some changes to the program by introducing some innova-tive elements in order to make it a more dynamic workshop while still keeping asharp focus on the new issues that are of interest to clinicians and of scientific va-lidity.

More time will be allowed for debates, particularly in the specialized sessions ontopics of interest in daily practice. There will be four interactive sessions, two forgynaecologists and two for pathologists, that will be based on clinical cases withpresentations using slides and videos. In each specialisation, one session will be ledby the speakers and the other by the participants who will present previously se-lected cases. And there will be the new Twitter style Sessions, an effective way tosummarize the salient points of the day.

After the success of the “Free Communications” in the previous Workshops, we havedecided to repeat it this year too. Prizes will be given to the best three communica-tions during the plenary session. Moreover, the participants will have the opportunityto vote for their favourite speaker and prizes will be given to the best three.

The multidisciplinary nature of the Workshop will allow experts from different fieldsto follow the topics of common interest in the plenary session as well as having theopportunity to learn about the latest developments in their own specialist areas. Theprogram will have a logical progression without duplications or overlap.

As in the previous Workshops, the XII edition will have lectures covering the latestissues in cervical cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment, and it will have themost highly respected researchers and clinicians from Italy and the rest of the world.

Although the congress has an international character, the atmosphere is informaland simple, and you can spend some pleasant days in Rome with us enjoying thetypical dishes of the evocative Roman restaurants.

We now look forward to welcoming you to the XII Workshop of Lower Genital TractPathology in Rome next year.

With our best regards,

The Course Coordinators

Antonio Frega Cesare Gentili Philip Davies
