The Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) is seeking volunteers to serve on committees for the 2022 program year, the SGO 2023 Annual Meeting on Women’s Cancer Program Committee and the SGO 2023 Winter Meeting Program Committee. Please review the application instructions below for committees and program committees, respectively.

Certain committees will serve a joint purpose for SGO and the Foundation for Women’s Cancer (FWC). The duration of an appointment is two years with the option for reappointment. The appointment for the 2023 Annual Meeting on Women’s Cancer Program Committee and 2023 Winter Meeting Program Committee is a one-year term.
