2nd European Ovary Workshop
All About Ovaries
March 6-11, 2027 | Lloret de Mar, Spain
Welcome to the EOW 2025
Welcome to the first ever European Ovary Workshop (EOW) – all about ovaries and ovarian research!
EOW aims to address global fertility challenges by bringing together researchers and clinicians in ovarian research. We will focus on ovarian biology, meiosis, ovarian microenvironment, generating oocytes in vitro, ovarian aging, endocrinology, ovarian dysfunction, environmental impacts, fertility preservation, and wildlife conservation. Through knowledge exchange and networking, EOW seeks to foster innovative solutions and support the next generation of scientists within ovarian research.
Join us from 17-20 February 2025 in Portugal to learn from the best and forge connections with leaders to shape the future of ovarian biology, fertility treatments and woman’s health.
We look forward to welcoming you all!

A PROGRAM PACKED WITH OVARIAN RESEARCH – ALL ABOUT OVARIES!
The EOW will cover a wide range of topics, from ovarian developmental biology across species to intricate molecular interactions within ovaries, endocrine control of reproduction, the impacts of toxic exposures, diseases, ovarian ageing, and generating oocytes in vitro .
Participants will present and deliberate on the latest basic and translational ovarian research and engage in various networking activities.
The program contains 12 current topics in ovarian research and female fertility:
Session 1: Ovarian Development & Meiosis
Session 2: Granulosa & Theca Cells
Session 3: Ovarian Microenvironment
Session 4: Generating Oocytes in vitro
Session 5: Ovarian Aging
Session 6: Ovarian Endocrinology
Session 7: Ovarian Dysfunction & ART
Session 8: Ovarian Toxicology
Session 9: Female Fertility Preservation
Session 10: Wildlife Conservation
Session 11: Organizing ovarian research & ethics
Session 12: Patient and public involvement in science
Each session comprises a keynote and selected short talks and flash talks.
