Dear Colleague,
The World Gastroenterology Organisation is holding the World Congress of
Gastroenterology this year from September 19-22 in Melbourne in conjunction
with the Gastroenterological Society of Australia's annual "Australian
Gastroenterology Week" (WCOG@AGW25).
I am really excited with the scientific program which I hope you have seen at: WCOG@AGW25.
The latest advances in research alongside new diagnostic and therapeutic
approaches, will all be covered by global experts, with up to 7 concurrent
sessions in parallel over a comprehensive four-day program.
There will also be multiple opportunities
to connect with colleagues from across the world in social events which should
facilitate collaborative research and the building of lasting relationships.
With early bird registration closing on
June 30, now is the time to make the decision to come!
The Congress will be held in the
State-of-the-Art Melbourne convention centre, situated in the heart of the
city.
A short walk away is the Sports precinct,
containing the tennis centre, home of the Australian Open Tennis as well as the
MCG, the home of Australian cricket and also Australian Rules football.
A few steps away is the Arts precinct with
its multiple theatres and galleries and the world famous Royal Botanic Gardens
plus hundreds of vibrant restaurants and cafes all of which have led to
Melbourne being voted "the world's most liveable city" on multiple
occasions!
A short drive away are vineyards, offering
wine tastings and delicious food, stunning surf beaches and the spectacular
Great Ocean Road.
Early spring is mild, optimising
comfortable travel before the heat of summer arrives providing the perfect
opportunity to attend an outstanding Congress and also enjoy some of the
hospitality and superb surroundings that Australia offers.
The WCOG@AGW2025 website has all the details for registration and accommodation.
The short video (link: https://www.wgo-agw25.gesa.org.au/welcome-address)
will show you just a little of what Melbourne has to offer.
Renowned for its warm and friendly people
and its unique and breathtaking scenery, everyone should visit Australia
at least once in their lifetime. The WCOG gives you the perfect opportunity to
do this!
I look forward to welcoming you to
Melbourne this September!
With kind regards,
