During the scientific sessions, speakers and the audience can exchange information through a “hands-on” computerized speaker-audience interaction system. With this state-of-the-art equipment, participants answer multiple choice questions, and within seconds, the answers are calculated and projected on a screen in tabular or graphic form for all to see. This system maximizes the ability for attendees from diverse disciplines to see differing opinions and compare consensus between the speakers and each other.

Imedex: Great Debates & Updates in Gynecologic Malignancies April 9, 2011 New York, New York conference notice

Subject: Q&A with Hannah Ortiz, gynecologic oncologist in Long Island, New York (media interview)

"Is there a shortage of gynecologists on the North Fork?

I am the only gynecologist who has an office [full time] on the North Fork. And I'm the only gynecologist who has had a permanent office on the North Fork in 25 years. I'm not talking specialty. I'm talking general gyn. Riverhead is the town where the North and South forks separate. There are two ob-gyn practices in Riverhead. And there are several on the South Fork of Long Island, East Hampton, Southampton and Hampton Bays. The only [full-time] gyn practice on the North Fork driving east is mine."
