From the AUA Secretary: Join us in Las Vegas for the 2021 AUA Annual Meeting
By: John D. Denstedt, MD, FRCSC, FACS, FCAHS | Posted on: 01 May 2021
We’re excited to travel to the entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas! Las Vegas, Nevada is the home to the 116th AUA Annual Meeting from September 10–13, 2021, at the Sands Expo and Convention Center.
The AUA Annual Meeting is the largest gathering of urologists in the world and is where you will find unparalleled access to groundbreaking research, new guidelines and the latest advances in urological clinical care. This year we’ve added two virtual components to the AUA Annual Meeting: May Kick-off Weekend and Summer School. These programs will complement the scientific programming happening at the AUA annual meeting.
The AUA2021 May Kick-off Weekend will be held virtually from May 21 to 23. This three-day program will feature more than 35 hours of live educational content, such as instructional courses and programming for Young Urologists and Residents. It will also have the Urologic Care for the Advanced Practice Provider Program and Practice Management Program. During the May Kick-off a virtual career development and job fair will occur, as well as the AUA Research: Early-Career Scientists Exchange: Paving Your Path to NIH Funding.
Back by popular demand is AUA Summer School! Two live instructional courses will be held each week from June through August. The courses will span the spectrum of urology and will cover topics such as BPH/LUTS, women’s health, oncology, sexual function and more. Prior to June, six courses will be included with the AUA2021 Kick-off. The AUA Summer School Series is a perfect way for urology health care professionals who find themselves with unpredictable schedules and travel restrictions to find opportunities for continuing education.
AUA’s Annual Meeting provides the highest standards for urological education. AUA programs offer something for everyone, including residents, researchers, medical students and others. Programming will cover topics spanning the spectrum of urology and will continue to provide information about the newest advances in clinical care, as well as new surgical techniques, innovations, discoveries and technologies.
We recognize the AUA Annual Meeting is a major event for the global urology community, and many look forward to the innovation, education, the in-person collaboration and networking opportunities this event provides. The Board of Directors and I want to assure you the health and safety of our attendees, exhibitors, partners, vendors and staff is the AUA’s highest priority. We expect to have a number of precautions in place to ensure the safety of conference attendees.
With the May Kick-off Weekend, AUA Summer School Series and 2021 AUA Annual Meeting, I am confident this year’s programming will exceed your expectations as we continue to adapt, perfect and expand to virtual learning opportunities and introduce fresh and innovative offerings.
The AUA2021 Annual Meeting registration site is open. I encourage you to visit www.AUA2021.org to explore the different programs, take advantage of the early bird discount period and reserve your housing. We have missed you and look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas!
