2026 Vernon Collins Oration (CANCELLED)

Join us for the 2026 Vernon Collins Oration, presented by The Royal Children's Hospital and the University of Melbourne Department of Paediatrics.
This year's inaugural Orator, Professor Sonia Grover, will present:
From unheard voices to long waiting lists: the evolution of paediatric and adolescent gynaecology
In this thought-provoking lecture, Professor Grover will explore the evolution of paediatric and adolescent gynaecology over the past three decades, charting its growth from an overlooked field to a recognised specialty. She will reflect on increasing awareness of conditions affecting young people, the growing demand for specialist services, and the opportunities and challenges ahead in delivering equitable, high-quality care.
