Pandemic and gender medicine. Prevention and health promotion rethought

Internationale Fachtagung

What are we learning from the pandemic? For science, for surgical and clinical practice, for the health care system and society? And – last but not least – for gender-sensitive medicine? We will look for some answers to these questions at our international conference – with exciting lectures and discussions and participants from different countries. You are warmly invited!

Among the experts are leading sex- and gender-medicine specialists such as Prof. Alexandra Kautzky-Willer and Prof. Margarethe Hochleitner from Austria, Prof. Ineke Klinge from Maastricht, Prof. Catherine Gebhard from Zurich, Prof. Vera Regitz-Zagrosek, Prof. Gertraud Stadler, Prof. Bettina Pfleiderer from Germany, as well as experts from the University of Greifswald and many others.

The international symposium is currently planned in a hybrid format, with a limited number of participants able to attend on site. All other participants are warmly invited to join us digitally. We will closely monitor the evolving situation and keep you updated about any possible changes. Participation to this congress is free of charge. The overall conference language is German, but there will be a session in English. For participating German medical doctors,14 training points from the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania State Medical Association will be awarded.
