Society of Women in Urology Travel Award

We are excited by the increased numbers of women that are choosing urology as their career and would like to encourage them to actively participate in SWIU activities, especially in the AUA annual meetings. With this in mind, we our proud to announce the “SWIU Travel Award” for our resident members. The award is designed to assist with the travel expenses of women residents presenting their research at the podium or poster sessions of the AUA annual meeting. This year one will be selected and will receive an award amount of $1,000.00. The winner is invited to attend the SWIU Sunday Breakfast Meeting and is asked to present at the Women Leaders in Urology Forum on Tuesday during the AUA. We then invite you to attend the Networking Reception that immediately follows the Forum that evening.

Please review the application form for details, and feel free to copy and distribute it, as you feel necessary. The deadline for application submission is January 25, 2010.
