In this editorial, we want further to congratulate the Winners, but also present them to our Readers, Supporters, Authors, Reviewers as well as all Members of the editorial board.

Canadian Urological Association Journal, 2020

S170 2020 has brought about a complete sea of change in how we live, socialize, operate, interact with patients, and meet together for conferences, continuing professional development, and to catch up with colleagues from across the world. We are still grappling with COVID-19, and we will be doing so for months (if not years). As a result, the in-person meeting of the Northeastern Section of the AUA was cancelled. Instead, the Northeastern Section will be holding a free virtual 72 nd Annual Meeting on Thursday, October 1 and Saturday, October 3. Please visit nsaua.org/annual to register and for additional meeting information. Drs. Rob Hamilton and Yonah Krakowsky are our 2020 Scientific Co-chairs, and they put together an amazing program for the in-person meeting. We can't host the entire meeting online, but please join us for two three-hour sessions that will be held outside clinical hours for a compressed scientific program that includes all the "best of" our original in-person program. And despite the pandemic (or perhaps because of it!), we had a record number of abstract submissions for the meeting this year. After rigorous peer-review, we are still publishing these abstracts in this issue of CUAJ to recognize the work, effort, and science put forth by our section members, residents, and fellows. Please note that the Section will be in Montreal for our meeting in 2021 and will return to Charlotte for our 2022 meeting. For those CUAJ readers who are not aware: the NSAUA is your section for much of Canada. Canadian urologists living in all provinces from Manitoba eastwards are automatically assigned to the NSAUA when you join the AUA. So until we can meet again in person, enjoy the 2020 Annual Meeting abstracts, and be sure to register at nsaua.org/annual to attend the NSAUA Virtual 72 nd Annual Meeting the evening of Thursday, October 1 and the morning of Saturday, October 3.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, 2019

This overview highlights the actionable near‐term objectives for the TRN drawn from discussions in the breakout sessions. A major purpose of the symposium was to focus attention on establishing priorities, setting goals, and identifying the steps toward accomplishing those goals. Two major objectives were identified. One is to establish Turner syndrome as a priority area of research for the National Institutes of Health. Turner syndrome should not only be viewed as a rare disorder, but also as a model for common diseases that have a male sex bias in the general population attributable to the lack of a second X chromosome. Barriers to recognition of Turner syndrome as an important area of research were identified, and new approaches to enhancing visibility are discussed. The second major objective is to further development of the Turner Syndrome Research Registry (TSRR). This patient‐powered research registry is a paradigm‐shifting model for how human‐based research can be improved t...

On November 8, 2013, the Leaders in Medicine (LIM) program hosted the 5th Annual Research Symposium. Dr. Jerrold Ellner, Chief of the Infectious Diseases section at Boston Medical Centre and Professor of Medicine at Boston University School of Medicine, was the keynote speaker and presented his lecture entitled “Tuberculosis – Past, Present and Future”.
