Research Day
The Friends of the Coombe Women and Infants Health Research Symposium was hosted in the Coombe Education Centre in December 2008. The day consisted of a series of short lecture given by field specialists who outlined cutting edge research in the area of women and infants health that is currently being conducted in the hospital.
The event was a wonderful opportunity to share our future strategy, and to acknowledge the generosity of many donors whose support has made a significant contribution to the international recognition of this hospital as a centre of excellence for research
