Educational Needs
Ongoing learning to mitigate practice gaps is important, and the SESAUA recognizes its duty to provide education to its members to improve overall knowledge. The Annual Meeting and the accompanying scientific program address the educational need for expert-led discussions regarding current topics in urology. Through a combination of lectures and question-and-answer formats, the planning committee has approved this program as a forum to provide state-of-the-art educational content relevant to its members and guests. Moreover, advancements in medical science and progress in management of various urologic diseases require basic and clinical research. Presentation and discussion of such peer-reviewed and peer-selected summaries and results of investigations provide “cutting edge” updates for practicing clinicians as well as essential feedback to researchers on the practical applications and translation of their investigations to clinical practice.
