I have heard from several trusted sources that a candidate for a recent The Royal College exam subsequently tested positive for Covid-19, and as a result several other candidates from the same exam room are now in mandatory isolation. 1/

Beyond dismayed to learn residents writing their The Royal College exam were *not* required to wear masks at their desks. Mid-pandemic. In a hotspot. I hope the affected individual recovers well. I hope no others get sick. 1/

What an amazing time at #AUASummit22 meeting so many inspiring urologists, and advocating for telehealth, physician workforce planning, diversity in clinical trials. Grateful to Northeastern Section for sponsoring these two Canadians! Amer. Urol. Assn. McMaster Urology

Standing on the shoulders of giants at #AUASummit22. Had the immense pleasure of meeting Dr @AnnePCameron who connected me with Dr Ann Gormley among many other amazing leaders in our field. In awe 🥰 I’ve big shoes (?heels) to fill! Amer. Urol. Assn. SWIU

When your photographer selfie-bombs and it ends up being your fave photo ☺️ Sad to leave these new friends (for now) - fortunately always the next meeting to look forward to! #AUASummit22 John Myrga AKoven @kateh_014

Incredibly disappointed at this noncommittal response by Amer. Urol. Assn.. Seems a reminder is needed that urologists DO provide sexual/reproductive health care. We can do better. Look forward to the revised statement. Involve SWIU. #RoeVsWade

When I'm sometimes asked when will there be enough [women on the Supreme Court] and I say, 'When there are nine,' people are shocked. But there'd been nine men, and nobody's ever raised a question about that. Ruth Bader Ginsburg 👑

Starting #AUA2023 by hearing ⭐️McMaster Urology R3 Raees Cassim discuss the Canadian experience treating cT2 RCC via partial nephrectomy. Take-always: better renal function, higher perioperative and local recurrence risk.

Maylynn Ding presents re-assessment of SRs published in urological literature with AMSTAR-2; quality still low Chuck Scales Niranjan Sathianathen Vikram M.

Started my quest with Philipp Dahm to improve the quality of systematic reviews in urology when I was a Med student! Here’s to many more years of brainstorming on how to engage authors & editors to increase our confidence in the evidence #AUA23

Inspiring hearing Dr. @AnnePCameron talk about the work done and to be done by SWIU task forces 🤩 Amazed at this turnout with many male colleagues present. Visible allyship is so important! #AUA23

Huge thanks to #AUA23 for supporting on site daycare this year. Amazing care and attention for our little ones = peace of mind. Lisa Bower

Dr. Guo refreshing our immunology knowledge in his transplant talk at the Canadian Urological Association Senior Urology Residents course. Always exciting to see old Chiefs step into their role as faculty ☺️ McMaster Urology

Patchwork of guideline methodology used by Canadian Urological Association clinical practice guidelines since 2018; would expect use of uniform approach to improve uptake, trust and also save resources for example by collaboration with Amer. Urol. Assn. Rod Breau Maylynn Ding

Loved catching up with my mentors and evidence-based medicine powerhouses Dr. Dahm and Dr. Violette in Montreal! Thank you Canadian Urological Association for hosting such a fun night and the Void for a FANTASTIC set 🎸💃 see you at our next meeting Philipp Dahm

Inconsistency between what Canadian Urological Association guidelines report using to assess strength of recommendations and what’s actually used. There is room for improvement Funding for a GRADE expert would help decrease burden on urologists in guideline development!

So incredibly excited to join Stanford Urology for this next chapter in my training to become an endourologist!! ☺️ Grateful to all my family, friends, and mentors at McMaster Urology for getting me here. Adventure and kidney stones await!
