Awards

Every year the EAU hands out a number of prestigious awards – to recognise and celebrate dedication and innovation in urological research and practice. Traditionally handed out at the Annual EAU Congress, the awards are a vital acknowledgement of the fact that the international urological community is progressive and continues to push the limits of what is known to mankind today.

The awards will be handed out during the Opening Ceremony and at special award sessions.
