Antimicrobial resistance and complex infections are rapidly reshaping urological practice. This event brings together leading experts to provide a comprehensive, evidence-based update on the prevention, diagnosis, and management of urological infections. By attending you will gain practical insights into the latest guidelines, research breakthroughs, and innovative technologies transforming infection control in urology.
Through a mix of lectures, interactive case discussions, and multidisciplinary panels, you will explore the dynamic environment of recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs), surgical site infections (SSIs), and device-associated infections. The event will also spotlight the challenges posed by multidrug-resistant organisms and emerging pathogens, such as Candida auris, and highlight advances in microbiome science, organoid models, and artificial intelligence.
This meeting is designed to support urology clinicians and allied healthcare professionals in translating research into practice, improving patient outcomes, and demonstrating enhanced infection stewardship within their clinical settings.
