For the first time in AGES&#8217; history the Local Organising Committee is compiled fully of AGES Accredited Training Program Graduates from across Australia, whom have put together the meeting, titled &#8220;<em>Next Generation<\/em>&#8221; to be held on the 5<sup>th<\/sup> and 6<sup>th<\/sup> of March 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst the world is slowly progressing to COVID-19 normal, we are mindful the challenges faced in 2020 are still present and we are yet to return to our normal method of conferencing. The Focus Meeting 2021 will be offered as a Hybrid event, we aim to host mini-sites in multiple locations throughout Australia (pending government regulations and advice) and will offer a virtual component for those who are unable to join us in person.<\/p>\n<p>The AGES Focus 2021 organising committee have developed a program highlighting many of the current issues faced by all, including advances in gynaecological practices, challenges with research and collaboration and confronting cultures issues. We have a spectacular team of international and local speakers, including Natasha Anandaraja and Linda Bradley from the USA, Nick Bourdel from France and Silvia Vannuccini from Italy. In addition, amongst the local speakers, Anand Senthi will introduce the concept of EBM 2.0 and Ea Mulligan will unpack all that is the clitoris.<\/p>\n<p>I am excited for the <strong><em>Next Generation<\/em><\/strong> to make their mark and carry the torch for the future of Women&#8217;s Health, we hope you are able to join us in March!<\/p>\n\t<strong>Bassem Gerges<br \/>\n<\/strong>Chair, AGES Board Member\n\t<h2>Conference Chair<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/events.ages.com.au\/ages-focus-meeting-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/12\/3.png\" alt=\"3\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1517\" width=\"1516\" title=\"3\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<p>Dr Bassem Gerges<\/p>\n\t<h2>Conference Committee<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/events.ages.com.au\/ages-focus-meeting-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/12\/4.png\" alt=\"4\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1517\" width=\"1516\" title=\"4\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<p>Dr Tran Nguyen<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/events.ages.com.au\/ages-focus-meeting-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/12\/6.png\" alt=\"6\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1517\" width=\"1516\" title=\"6\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<p>Dr Luke McLindon<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/events.ages.com.au\/ages-focus-meeting-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/12\/7.png\" alt=\"7\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1517\" width=\"1516\" title=\"7\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<p>Dr Jennifer Pontre<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/events.ages.com.au\/ages-focus-meeting-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/12\/8-1.png\" alt=\"8\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1517\" width=\"1516\" title=\"8\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<p>Dr Shamitha Kathurusinghe<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/events.ages.com.au\/ages-focus-meeting-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/12\/5.png\" alt=\"5\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1517\" width=\"1516\" title=\"5\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<p>Dr Supuni Kapurubandara<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Next Generation&#8217; Hybrid Meeting 5th &amp; 6th March 2021 Register Now!
