We are delighted to announce that the Ovarian Club XI Meeting will take place on November 1-3, 2018 in Paris, France.
Following the success of last year’s joint collaboration between the Ovarian Club Meeting (OC) and the Congress on Controversies in Preconception, Preimplantation and Prenatal Genetic Diagnosis (CoGEN), the OC Meeting and CoGEN Congress will take place in concurrently this year as well. Read more >
We look forward to welcoming you in Paris for a new and exciting Ovarian Club experience.
Sincerely yours,
Zeev Shoham
