FIGO has appointed Michael Geary as the next Editor-in-Chief for the International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics (IJGO) from January 2021.
Geary has been an active member of the IJGO Editorial Board since 2015. He has made major contributions to the success of the journal through handling peer-review (both as a reviewer and as an Associate Editor), editing IJGO supplements, authoring submissions for the Contemporary Issues in Women’s Health section, and helping to develop journal strategy during Editorial Board meetings. Given Geary’s substantial contributions to IJGO, the review panel were very confident that he was the best person to assume leadership of the journal.
Geary was a Clinical Research Fellow from 1996 to 1998 at University College London. He was head of Department at Saint Michael’s Hospital, Toronto for three years and has continued to be a Professor at University of Toronto. His current position is as Clinical Director of the Rotunda Hospital and Professor of Obstetrics & Gynaecology at RCSI, Dublin.
With almost 30 years of experience in the field, Geary has been driven by a desire to constantly improve and optimise safe outcomes for mothers and babies. His approach to care is to ensure that his patients are well informed and that their care is tailored to their individual needs and circumstances. His motivation is for safety first while ensuring patients and partners have a positive and happy birth experience.
