EAU15: Day 2

 
Dear Prof. Aleksandr Shulyak,



The 30th Anniversary EAU Congress is now in full swing with more than 12,000 delegates enjoying the great variety of meetings, courses, and poster sessions that were organised today. The Young Urologists Office held its full-day programme dedicated to residents and young urologists and as always the second congress day started with the General Assembly. Today’s edition of EAU News gives you a flavour of this diverse day.



We hope you appreciated the special Social Media Hands-on Training sessions that also took place today. It’s great to see that so many of you are engaging in the Twitter conversation with #EAU15; sometimes sharing science or raising questions, sometimes networking and renewing (online) friendships. Photographic impressions are available on our Facebook page and all awards winners are also posted there. Read the EUT Congress News for full coverage of this congress day or download the PDF from the Congress Website.
