第一届亚洲子宫内膜异位症大会

    BETTER RESEARCH, BETTER LIFE

Asia is the world’s largest and the most populous continent, hosting 60% of world’s current human population. Endometriosis is a debilitating disease with an enigmatic pathogenesis. With a prevalence of approximately 10% in women of reproductive age, endometriosis affects much more women in Asia than any other continent in the world and impacts negatively on economy and society.

The First Asian Conference on Endometriosis (ACE I) will be held from October 16 to 17 in Shanghai, China. Organized by the ACE Organization (ACEO) consisting of scientists from China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Turkey, and Shanghai OB/GYN Hospital, this meeting will be the first-ever gathering of Asian scientists and clinicians interested in research in endometriosis, adenomyosis, and endometrial biology.

Echoing the theme of the World EXPO Shanghai 2010, the theme of ACE I is “Better research, Better life”. ACE I now calls for abstracts for oral and poster presentations. The ACE II will be held in Istanbul in 2012.
