Scottish Trainees

The joint West and East of Scotland Trainees’ Committees are pleased to invite
you to register for the above event.

Date: 4th – 5th December 2009

Venue: Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons, Glasgow

This is an exciting time of progress and research in Obstetrics and Gynaecology,

and the aim of the meeting is to update trainees in the latest developments within
the specialty, from a wide variety of well respected experts from throughout
Scotland.

It is also an opportunity to submit abstracts for oral or poster presentation (which

will be judged by an independent scientific committee), and to participate in
organised workshops to assist in the completion of your log book.
