EMUC16: Patient selection, NAC impact for BCa patients

Bladder cancer, widely considered as an underfunded area in urological malignancies, requires a more refined clinical staging if patients are to optimally benefit from treatment such as neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).

The first step in improving the impact of NAC is to refine clinical staging in order to accurately identify those patients likely to progress despite radical cystectomy alone. Know more at the the 8th European Multidisciplinary Meeting on Urological Cancers (EMUC16), which will take place from 24-27 November 2016 in Milan, Italy.

Submit your abstract for EAU17 in London
 

Submit your abstract for the much-awaited EAU17 via the online abstract submission system on or before 1 November 2016.


 

Some practical do’s & don’ts in submitting an abstract

In the previous EAU congress in Munich, more than 4,400 abstracts were submitted but only 29% were accepted. Competition is tough. Here are handy tips on how your abstract can get the attention it deserves:

  • Deliver a clean, precisely worded text free from grammatical and spelling errors. Avoid vague descriptions. Reviewers are less impressed when language is cluttered with unnecessary details;
  • Carefully phrase your concluding statements and emphasise the significance of your study. Concise statements make an impact.
