Meetings and Presentations Virtual AUA September 10-13, 2021 The annual meeting of the American Urologic Association was scheduled to be held as an in-person meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada. Two weeks before the meeting, the decision was made to convert to a virtual event. Most sessions were held, but events such as moderated poster and abstract sessions, were completed without real time moderators. The following were Department of Urology faculty, residents and students contributions to our major annual Urology meeting. See page 43 for details on the AUA Course “Urologic Care for the Advanced Practice Provider” CoDirected by Anne Lizardi-Calvaresi, DNP, RNFA. A complete listing of Jefferson Urology contributions is shown here.
Even with a virtual program, the AUA provided the AUA Daily news each day of the meeting.
