EAU15: Day 3
|
| Dear Prof. Aleksandr Shulyak,
Another full programme on the third day of the 30th Anniversary EAU Congress in a rather chilly Madrid. The great variety of Video and Poster Sessions, Thematic Sessions, and ESU Courses is keeping all of us comfortably warm. Today’s Plenary Session focused on prostate cancer, as did several of the other sessions and courses. Other topics included bladder cancer, male LUTS, and paediatrics.
Of course the Twitter conversation continues to connect delegates and even allows those who could not make it to Madrid to get a taste of the great work that is being presented here. Photographic highlights can be viewed on our Facebook page and all award winners of the day are listed there as well. Pick up the latest edition of EUT Congress News for full coverage or download the PDF from the Congress Website.
