Endometriosis is a gynecologic disease that can only be diagnosed through laparoscopic surgery. One in 10 women are affected by the disease and on average it takes about 10 years to diagnose. Throughout the week, guest speakers like Dr. Malcolm Mackenzie, MD, Assistant Professor, Harvard Medical School, of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, will be exploring the disease with you. The course will explore the disease from various aspects with include the patient perspective, clinical challenges, and the importance of advocacy of the disease. This course is great for anyone interested in learning about the disease or anyone looking to become a health professional in the future. Please register here: https://goo.gl/forms/MO3M37RaFfTEWqzh1.
