Gemelli, IRCCS, Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in Rome, Italy, has been accredited as European Training Centre in Gynecologic Oncology on April 19, 2018.This important result has been obtained after rigorous review of number of cases treated per year and hospital facilities for patients and doctors, from representatives from ESGO (Prof. D. Haidopulos) and from ENYGO (Dr. K. Zawleski).As a consequence, four positions for fellows in gynecologic oncology have been opened, starting on this year and lasting for five years.This acknowledgment is particularly important in Italy, where, differently from other countries in Europe, no fellowship or subspecialty programs have been designed yet.Thanks to ESGO, this training program will be the natural interface with Europe for the new generation of young doctors, working in an international network.
