The purpose of this meeting is to
convene an international group of clinical and basic researchers to
discuss urologic complications of diabetes including bladder, sexual,
and erectile dysfunction as well as urinary tract infections. The
meeting is planned as a series of short presentations on current understanding,
knowledge gaps, and future directions for research on urologic complications
among men and women with diabetes. By virtue of the relatively small
size of this meeting, we hope that investigators will form international
collaborative research working groups and initiate potential new areas
of research. It is very likely that an eventual result of this meeting
will be a NIDDK program announcement. |
