Dear esteemed colleagues,
Mabuhay!
It is a great honor and privilege to host this significant gathering of experts and practitioners in the field of pediatric urology. This year’s theme is entitled “Building Bridges Towards a Better Pediatric Urology: Highlighting Collaborations and Interdisciplinary Approach”. We hope this conference will represent a unique opportunity for us to come together, share knowledge, and foster collaborations that will advance our understanding and practices in pediatric urology not only in the Asia Pacific region but across the globe.
Cebu, known for its rich cultural heritage and scenic beauty, serves as a fitting backdrop for our meeting. As we gather here, let us be inspired not only by the surroundings but also by the collective expertise and dedication present in our gathering.
Over the next few days, we will engage in active discussions, practical presentations, and live surgery workshops that will cover the latest advancements, research, and innovative practices in pediatric urology. Let this meeting be a platform where we can challenge current practices, introduce new ideas, and pave the way for future breakthroughs in pediatric urology.
Once again, welcome to Cebu, Philippines and I wish you all a productive and enriching conference.
Daghang salamat kaayo.
Warm regards,
