SUMMARY:Chasing the Chameleon: Advances in the Diagnosis and Treatment of E
 ndometriosis
DESCRIPTION:Endometriosis is a chronic condition that affects an estimated 
 10% of women of reproductive age. It is characterized by the growth of endo
 metrial tissue outside of the uterus, leading to symptoms such as severe pa
 in, especially during menstrual periods, or infertility. Despite its preval
 ence, endometriosis is often misdiagnosed and the cause of the disease is s
 till largely unknown, resulting in inadequate treatment and significant per
 sonal and societal burdens.\n\nThe Leopoldina International Virtual Panel D
 iscussion will bring together leading experts to explain the characteristic
 s of endometriosis and discuss the latest findings and advances in the diag
 nosis and treatment of endometriosis. The panel will provide a platform to 
 exchange knowledge, ideas and perspectives on ongoing research efforts and 
 raise scientific and public awareness of this complex condition.\n\nThe Leo
 poldina will welcome the following experts to the podium:\n\n 	Professor St
 acey Missmer, ScD, Professor of Obstetrics, Gynaecology, and Reproductive B
 iology at Michigan State University, Grand Rapids, MI, and Adjunct Professo

 , United States 	Professor Dr Bettina Toth, Director of the Department Gyna
 ecological Endocrinology and Reproductive Medicine at the Medical Universit

 dometriosis Center at the University Hospital Erlangen, Germany 	Professor 
 Nicky Hudson, PhD, Professor of Medical Sociology, Centre for Reproduction 
 Research, De Montford University, Leicester, United Kingdom \n\nThis panel 
 discussion will be moderated by Dr Anna Carthaus, Deutsche Welle, and is pa
 rt of the Leopoldina International Virtual Panel Series.\n\nIn July 2020, t
 he Leopoldina launched a virtual format for global scientific exchange: Leo
 poldina International is a series of online panels organized by Leopoldina’
 s International Relations Department in cooperation with its global partner
