There is a limit of TWO abstract submissions per presenter.

To increase the diversity of topics presented, as well as allow for sufficient time for each presentation, all submitted abstracts will be reviewed by a designated committee. There will again be Moderated Poster Presentations on Friday evening; the top three abstracts will be presented as podium presentations on Saturday morning. Those whose abstracts are accepted for presentation must be available in-person to present their abstract (no substitute presenters will be allowed). Submitters will be contacted by mid-December 2026.

We are requesting for the submission of abstracts involving ANY urologic topic of interest (i.e. Oncology, Minimally Invasive Surgery, Endourology/Stone Diseases, Andrology/Infertility, Reconstruction/Trauma, Transplant, Female Urology, Pediatric Urology, Benign/General Urology, or Other), and these may include clinical/translational/basic science studies or case series.

We will have a “Chief Residents Debate” on Saturday, March 28th. We are requesting that all programs send their chief resident to compete in this exciting debate. In addition, we are accepting cases for the “Interesting and Bizarre Cases” session. All submitted cases will be reviewed by a designated committee who will select the cases to be presented for review during these sessions.

Monetary prizes will be given for the Top Abstracts, Best Poster, and Best Interesting and Bizarre Case accepted. Submitters must be present at the Award Ceremony on Saturday afternoon in order to claim their award (no exceptions).

Please pass along this important information to your residents, fellows and medical students and help us make this a great meeting.

As a reminder, we will once again be offering the Resident Registration Package which includes complimentary meeting registration, a ticket to the Welcome Reception, and complimentary room and tax for Friday night at the host hotel to all residents.

Monetary awards will also be given to presenters whose abstracts are accepted for podium presentations.

NEW: OUS medical students who have an abstract accepted will receive a travel award for one night’s hotel stay at the host hotel on Friday night.

See you in Columbus!

Sincerely,

Stephen Hong, MD
