Following the motto "Good science, better medicine, best practice" ESMO congress has been the focal European gathering point for oncological professionals focused on improving treatment of cancer patients. This year's annual ESMO Gynaecologic Cancers Congress has been held in Florence, Italy and has once again gathered scientists and clinicians around this hot topic.

Congratulations on the well-deserved prize!

Hege was not the only group member presenting at the meeting. Group leader prof.
