Cochrane Gynaecology and Fertility Group in Auckland, New Zealand in collaboration with the Academic Medical Center of the University of Amsterdam, has established a new Cochrane Gynaecology and Fertility satellite.

Our colleagues in Greece held their 4th Cochrane workshop in Athens recently. The one-day interactive course on assessing risk of bias was addressed to clinicians, researchers, public health specialists and other healthcare professionals. They had 32 keen registrants who reviewed relevant Cochrane Handbook sections, listened to presentations from faculty, participated in exercises and received USB sticks with all the presentations for future reference. 

We had a really succesful time at ESHRE. Important events included meeting with our authors, editors and interested visitors, and an initial meeting of people concerning the COMMIT initiative. We had many visitors to our booth a27 in Exhibition Hall 2 at ESHRE's annual meeting. 

The work of the former Cochrane Fertility Regulation Group has merged with our group as Professor and Mrs Helmerhorst take a well-earned retirement.We now include reviews of contraception and termination of pregnancy. The Managing Editor of these titles is Tineke Crawford. Contact her at t.crawford@auckland.ac.nz. 

In 2017 Cochrane has partnered with the Campbell Collaboration, the Joanna Briggs Institute, Guidelines International Network and the International Society for Evidence-Based Health Care to present a conference with wide appeal to anyone who has an interest in evidence production, systematic reviews, research synthesis, and evidence-informed policy and practice. 

There is still time to register for the 24th Cochrane Colloquium taking place October 23-27 in Seoul, South Korea. Go to https://colloquium.cochrane.org/ for all information.
