As we enter 2025, I am excited to see our department’s continued growth and success through academic collaborations, the contributions of incoming faculty, and the development of groundbreaking research. These efforts underscore our commitment to excellence.
The outstanding work of our residents, fellows, and faculty exemplifies our educational and research achievements. I am thrilled to announce that 13 AUA abstracts have already been accepted—a significant accomplishment highlighting the dedication and expertise of our team.
I would also like to congratulate Dr. Eric Bortnick on his appointment as deputy editor of the pediatric section of the journal Urology [commonly referred to as the "Gold Journal"]. During his three-year term, Dr. Bortnick will oversee the screening of submitted articles, assign reviewers, and make acceptance decisions based on reviewer recommendations. This prestigious role is a testament to his contributions to the field.
