Yale Urology 4th Annual Bulldog Debates

Yale Urology has a longstanding legacy of education, helping to train, attract, and showcase many of the leading surgeons and scientists in our field. Join us this fall November 6–8, 2026, as we continue that tradition of innovation and collaboration at our 4th Annual Yale Urology Bulldog Debates, held at the Yale Club of New York City.

This two-day, CME-accredited symposium is designed for urology clinicians or those interested in exploring advanced issues in the field through a dynamic debate-based format. Yale affiliation is not required. Sessions will focus on innovative topics in:

• clinical urology, including HoLEP surgery
• urogynecology and reconstructive pelvic surgery
• urologic oncology
• sexual and reproductive medicine, with particular attention to emerging conversations surrounding testosterone therapy and GLP-1 medications

Presenters will include both Yale School of Medicine Department of Urology faculty, and distinguished guest faculty:

• Dong Hyeon Lee, MD - Ewha Womans University College of Medicine/Urology Institute, Seoul, Korea
• Nicole Miller, MD - Vanderbilt University School of Medicine
• Victor Nitti, MD - David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA

The program will also feature our second annual live surgery and panel discussion. This year, Yale urologist Daniel Kellner, MD, will demonstrate HoLEP, a procedure largely used to alleviate benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

In advance of the symposium, we will host our annual trainee surgical skills lab on Friday, November 6, designed specifically for medical students, residents, and fellows attending the conference.

Attendance is open to:

• Physicians
• Surgeons
• Nurses
• APPs
• Trainees (students, residents, fellows)
• PhD researchers

Yale affiliation is not required. Registration fees range from $100 to $400. The weekend begins with an optional welcome reception on Friday evening, November 6, at 7 p.m., with CME programming beginning Saturday morning, November 7.
