Dear Colleagues The International Federation of Fertility Societies (IFFS) and our 2019 World Congress Scientific Committee are honored to announce the 23rd IFFS World Congress, to be held 11-14 April 2019 in Shanghai, China. Themed “Transforming the Frontiers of Human Reproduction” the Congress will highlight contributions from renowned international faculty focused on delivering leading edge research across a range of current issues in our field. International co-operation and dialogue in fertility diagnosis and treatment can be said to have truly commenced in 1951 in Rio de Janeiro with the formation of the International Fertility Association (IFA). Eminent scientists from around the world became members and the triennial World Congress in Fertility and Sterility was organized and held in New York City, USA, in May, 1953. At the Sixth World Congress (1968) IFFS was formally organized. For the past fifty years, the IFFS World Congress has been a hallmark of global reproductive healthcare. We have distinguished ourselves in service to our core mission: to emphasize cutting edge basic and translational science; to provide education to practitioners globally; and to promote high standards of care and advocacy for patients.

  • Appendix a History of Conflicts and Violence A.1 Mindanao, Philippines
    Appendix A History of Conflicts and Violence A.1 Mindanao, Philippines Moros1 live on the large island of Mindanao (mostly on the western side now) at the southern end of the Philippine chain and on several small islands between Mindanao and Indonesia and Malaysia to the west. Violent conflicts between the Muslim Moro population in Mindanao and the central authorities date back to when the Spanish took over Philippines after Magellan’s arrival (16th Century) and started Christianity in the rest of the island chain. The conflict flared up with variations after the United States took over from Spain in 1898 and after independence in 1946. The military government of Marcos reignited the conflict in the 1970s with a program of settling large numbers of Christians in Mindanao. This and the attendant displacement of Moros from land prompted the formation of insurgent organizations. Four overlapping categories of groups in Southern Philippines have been fighting with the government and with each other in recent decades: Moro separatists, Islamist militants, Communists (operating nationwide), and bandit and kidnapper gangs.2 These labels reflect motivations, not clear organizational distinctions, but such categories can help discern what drives conflict and violence at different times and places, and what might reduce it. Within the context of this evaluation, focused on the Mindanao, there are two main drivers of conflict: ethnic/religious separatism and criminality. Some of the local disputes between Moros and Christians are over land titling, which also feeds into the wider political conflict. The conflicts in Mindanao are thus multidimensional. Figure A.1.1 shows the Heidelberg Conflict Indicators for various pairs of organizations and how they vary over time.

DEA investigator T Kimberly Brill was sitting in her government- issue cubicle in downtown Minneapolis one afternoon in October 2007 when a package arrived from FedEx. Not just via FedEx, but from the FedEx corporation itself. On a hunch, Brill and another investiga- tor, Steven Holdren, had sent a subpoena to the shipping company weeks before, asking for all records on an account used by a phar- macy called Altgeld Garden Drug, on the South Side of Chicago. Brill and Holdren were what the DEA calls “diversion investiga- tors,” who focus on the ways prescription drugs are diverted into illegal markets. Unlike DEA “agents,” diversion investigators don’t carry guns and have no power to arrest anyone. The glamour busts of cartel bosses and meth distribution rings were typically as distant from Brill and Holdren’s work as a murder case is from a traffic cop’s. Most of their time was spent taking down shady doc- tors and pharmacy “pill mills,” for overprescribing and over- dispensing addictive or dangerous medications.

The promise we made to gather again in 5 years is now being realised! I am indeed privileged to be extending, in the absence of our late Head Boy, Roger Webber, a very warm welcome to the attendees of this, our 55th year since matric, and to also pass on best wishes to those unable to attend this occasion. I unfortunately am one of the non-attendees as I have recently been hospitalised with a heart problem which entailed the fitting of a pacemaker. Regretfully the recovery regime prevents me from travelling from the UK at this time. The “Year Book” is not just a record of school achievements only but it captures the life of a truly vintage year.

Fortunately memories linger on and thoughts of those days are difficult to erase, some entered through the cranium, others via Mr Barker‟s cane. To have a gathering of almost 50 members of our class of ‟61 together at Founders Day is fantastic. Thank you to all for making the effort especially the participants who have come from the four corners of the world. Meeting the old faces will re-kindle memories and I am sure stories will come out of the woodwork cupboard, bringing with it many laughs. The committee consisting of Peter Turner, Owen Thompson and Werner Illgner have organised an eventful week-end which I sincerely hope you will enjoy. Grateful thanks to them all for their planning and efforts.
