Testimonials Dear fellows,ESGO Masterclass is a great opportunity to receive an update through the whole curriculum in gynaecological oncology in 3 days, delivered by the international multidisciplinary faculty, held in a friendly and open atmosphere of fellows from different parts of Europe.On top of that, in order to make it truly interactive, participants will have an opportunity to present selected case-reports and discuss them with the group.If I were a fellow nowadays, I would not miss it!David CibulaPast ESGO PresidentCharles University Hospital, Department of Obstetrics and GynaecologyPrague, Czech Republic Dear colleagues,Over the last few years, ESGO has initiated and promoted the development and implementation of a European wide training program in gynaecological oncology.However, there are countries where gynaecological oncology is still not recognized as a separate sub-specialty, no ESGO-accredited centers exist and therefore achieving competencies for training is still very challenging for some trainees.For these reasons the ESGO-ENYGO-ESO Masterclass was developed, aiming to fill this critical gap and need in education and training.This year in Warsaw, you will be able not only to receive up-to-date and standardised knowledge, based on recent ESGO guidelines but also meet and interact with other trainees.See you in June!Kamil ZalewskiENYGO ChairHolycross (Świętokrzyskie) Cancer CenterKielce, Poland Dear colleagues,I would like to attract your attention to the ESGO-ENYGO-ESO Masterclass in gynaecological oncology.
