2 Dear Colleagues and Friends, It is with a great pleasure that I announce to you the upcoming LSOG2014 international annual meeting. Colleagues, committees, and groups have been mobilized to work hard to bring to you another glorious story of hard work, success, and high edge science. One year after the other, we are drawing a beautiful painting of women s health and wellness reflecting the complexity, yet the charm of our task and the sublime endeavor we are undertaking. All through those years, we highlighted one main principle and philosophy: Woman's health is a continuum with many dimensions and it is approached accordingly. That philosophy dictated much of our planning of yearly conferences and meetings. This year, the meeting will take the preemptive challenge, focusing on the importance of screening and preventive measures in saving lives and reducing morbidity of women. Topics focusing on screening tests and modalities in maternal, reproductive, oncologic, and infertility conditions will be discussed. Hot topics in maternal health, high risk pregnancies as well as topics in the reproductive life of women (cancer, hormones, infertility, sexual health) will be discussed. In addition, updated research and clinical practices will be presented by world renowned experts and local speakers. As we have been doing every year also, specialized workshops will be offered to build capacity of colleagues in various clinical and research practice skills, to be able to meet daily demands and global progress. I invite you all to be part of this international event, meet old friends, make new ones, and enjoy a city that taught us all the art of survival, resilience, and pleasure. Sincerely FAYEZ BITAR MD, FACS, FACOG President, Lebanese Society of Obstetrics & Gynecology President LSOG 2014 Meeting
