Report of FOGSI CNN Organized by Dr. Sunita Tandulwadkar in Pune on 23 - 25^th June 2017

To achieve something you have never achieved, you got to do something you have never done,

This is the success mantra of West Zone FOGSI Vice President Dr. Sunita Tandulwadkar, who left us spellbound with her masterstroke conference – The FOGSI CNN 2017. The conference was held at the J W Marriot Pune from 23^rd - 25^th June 2017, under the aegis of Pune Obstetrics and Gynecology. There was unconditional support from FOGSI president Dr. Rishma Pai and POGS president Dr. Nishikant Shrotri. The organizing chairpersons were Dr. Parag Biniwale, Dr. Girija Wagh, Dr. Nandita Palshetkar and Dr. ShanthaKumari, and they left no stone unturned to make the conference a phenomenal success.

Aptly called the ‘FOGSI-CNN’, the conference deliberation was on the following themes

C - Controversies in Obstetrics & Gynecology
N - Newer advances in Obstetrics & Gynecology
N - Newer evidences in Obstetrics & Gynecology

23^rd June 2017 witnessed interesting pre-congress workshops –Infertility, Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology, Medicolegal workshop, Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy & hyperglycemia and labour workshop. There was a live relay of vaginal surgeries, which started from basics and went upto detailing of complicated cases.

There were 3 parallel sessions on 24^th and 25^th June - the main conference days. The power packed halls till late evenings, spoke high about the rich academic content of the scientific programme and the enthusiasm of the delegates alike.

Association with more than 18 FOGSI Committees, crisp dedicated hard-core academics, unparalleled cultural evenings and a food fiesta –CNN had it all. With more than 1000 delegates from across the country, the handpicked star faculty did a job par excellence. The quest for knowledge, and curiosity for advances in the field was palpable. Sessions were more interactive than didactic, there were round tables, panels to start and end the day with – making interaction vital.

A FOGSI CNN mobile app, which has all the lectures uploaded as ready reckoner, was a highlight.

Highlight of the conference was 20 Lacs given to FOGSI

Nothing succeeds like success.

FOGSI CNN 2017 shall be cherished always for its academics, cultural and hospitality, with lingering memories from Pune, for years to come….
