EAU15: Day 1

 
Dear Prof. Aleksandr Shulyak,



The 30th Anniversary EAU Congress is off to a great start! Throughout the day there were 12 Urology Beyond Europe sessions, highlighting the international and collaborative nature of our organisation, and several Special Sessions, showing the EAU’s diversity. In this first edition of EAU News from Madrid, you can read about several of these highpoints.

 

Don’t forget to follow, or better yet join, the conversation on Twitter with #EAU15 and check our Facebook page for pictures of the awards winners and impressions from the congress floor. Check EUT Congress News for the most comprehensive coverage. Incidentally, this is the last introduction from my hand, as Prof. Chris Chapple will take it over as EAU Secretary General tomorrow morning!

 

Enjoy our anniversary congress!

 

P-A. Abrahamsson

EAU Secretary General
