Think Tank on Neuroscience in Urology — sponsored by NIDDK

View event details and agenda here

The goal of the meeting is to promote and enhance research on neuro-urology by:

  • Facilitating new collaboration between experts in neuroscience and urology
  • Employing technical advances that are well established in other areas of neuroscience and neurology to studies of urogenital regulation and dysfunction
  • Engaging expertise in other areas of neuroscience and neurology to stimulate development of new approaches needed to define and manipulate peripheral and CNS circuits that regulate urogenital function
  • In line with their ongoing impact in other areas of neuroscience, expanding the scope of neuroscience input to understanding urological conditions by involving experts in: behavioral neuroscience, developmental neurobiology, neurovascular regulation, systems neuroscience, neural regeneration, and neuroimmunology
  • Discussing priorities and strategies for future neuro-urology research, including identification of major gaps and opportunities, and a target for achievement over the next 5–10 years.

The Meeting also includes excellent opportunities for informal discussion including:

  • Poster presentations open to all registrants
  • Interdisciplinary collaborations
  • Working group discussions to share expertise and develop priorities for the future


The Registration Deadline is May 5, 2019
