Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We are heartily grateful for the warm support of all of the people concerned, including the moderators and panelists of both societies for giving us the opportunity to hold the 3rd American Urological Association/Japanese Urological Association (AUA/JUA) Joint Meeting, held once again at the 103rd Annual Meeting of the American Urological Association (17-22 May 2008, Orlando, Florida, USA). Joint programs have been held by the societies of France and Italy and Latin America in recent years. China and India from Asia also participate. However, it has not been easy to maintain the joint meeting because of constraints in planning, financial support and the workforce, and therefore some societies have been unable to hold their meetings continuously. Nevertheless, there are long-term plans to hold the meeting with the cooperation of both AUA and JUA sharing the moderators and panelists. We started to adopt continuing medical education (CME) credits last year for AUA members who participated in our meeting in various ways. This time we place emphasis on the different views of clinical practice and basic research and plan to have our program more widely incorporated this year with discussions and case studies. We would like to thank Professor Robert C Flanigan, the Secretary General of AUA, Professor Glenn M Preminger, the Chairman of the AUA Office of Education and the staff of AUA and JUA for supporting our program. We hope to keep holding the joint meeting and have plenty of ideas on themes and forms. We believe that this international program helps to establish a closer relationship between JUA and AUA in the scientific field. Akihiko Okuyama md, President of JUA Hideyuki Akaza md, Chairman of the International Committee of JUA.
