Your monthly update from the EAU
Over the past two months, the EAU has organised or participated  in a large variety of scientific meetings, each showing a different side of our core mission. The Regional Office hosted itsCentral and South-Eastern European Meetings in order to tap new sources of talent and to offer opportunities of training and testing to every urologist or resident.

The single biggest event to recently conclude is the 7th European Multidisciplinary Meeting on Urological Cancers. The annual EMUC meeting is proof of our commitment to looking beyond urology and working together with other disciplines to best help our patients.

At the moment, our Association is in full preparation for our 31st Annual Congress, which will be held in Munich on March 11-15. We hope to see you there!

Introducing EU Focus
Introducing EU Focus

We are pleased to introduce a new edition of EU Focus, our newly launched journal managed under the Editorial Team of European Urology. The incentive for creating this new scientific journal was to give a stage to articles discussing contemporary and practice-changing studies which may not be suited for our main journal, European Urology. EU Focus will be published six times per year in an electronic format. This edition focusses on Smoking and Urological Health.
