Past declarations

I have attended a training workshop on laparoscopic surgery delivered and funded by Ethicon within the past 5 years.

I have chaired a session on gynaecological surgery at an educational meeting sponsored by Roche in 2018 but received no payment from them for time or expenses. This was offered to me, but I declined and requested that this be donated to charity instead. The company were not able to donate my fees to charity and I received no payment. I do not prescribe any chemotherapy products made by Roche and have no financial or professional conflict of interest with regard to this meeting.

Declaration on 28 September 2018

Other declarations

I declined the previously declared reimbursement from Roche for a train fare to attend a meeting on 4/10/18, so no longer have a financial conflict of interest in this regard. I will chair a discussion on bowel surgery in ovarian cancer treatment at a meeting on 4/20/18, sponsored by Roche ,but take no financial honorarium or expenses for this from Roche and have no intellectual conflict of interest.
