Collaboration with Pharma Companies
Collaboration with pharma companies helped to support our early stage career researchers. One example is Gedeon Richter plc, which is a European innovation-driven specialty pharmaceutical company with products distributed in more than 100 countries worldwide. The Gedeon Richter prize includes a monetary prize and a book token for the medical student whose women’s health related essay submission is deemed to be the most meritorious by a board of assessors representing the departments of obstetrics and gynaecology and of the pre-clinical studies. Mr Karl Livori was awarded this prize in 2023, following his essay on ‘Endometriosis-associated Ovarian Cancer’ , done in collaboration with GYNOCARE members.
There was an exhibition area set up specifically organized by pharma companies at GYNOCARE conferences, and conferences organized by GYNOCARE members.
