@fontev1 @FlorVerghote It was a pleasure working with you @FlorVerghote, thank you for advancing cancer research @uzgent @ugent ! Good luck with your next goal: becoming a radiation oncologist 🙏

Four years of hard work were rewarded yesterday with a wonderful PhD and PhD defence by @FlorVerghote ! The results of this research contribute to a better understanding of the role of radiotherapy in bladder cancer. Proud to have been your supervisor with @CharlesPraet !

Honoured receiving recognition at #ERUS25 🇬🇧 for the work of our @uzgent renal transplant team. @KarelDecaestec1 @CharlesPraet @camilleberquin @AFSpinoit @LiesbethDesend1 @esnauwae @AngeloTerrito @AlbertoBreda1 @Ric_Campi @mireiamusquera @BranchereauJu

The world’s first human bladder transplant has been completed at UCLA Health. Led by Dr. Nima Nassiri (@dgsomucla) with Dr. Inderbir Gill (@keckmedicineusc), the 8-hour surgery connected both a kidney and bladder. Read more: ucla.in/43rWcxl @OneLegacyNews

On #WorldClinicalTrialsDay, we honor James Lind’s 1747 trial using citrus to fight scurvy. Today, we’re swapping fruits for innovation in the PODRACING trial (NCT06536439), distributing 3D kidney models to support robot-assisted surgery. From oranges to life-saving tech! 🍊➡️🤖

Today in #PiS: "Robotic ileal ureter replacement vs kidney autotransplantation for long ureteric strictures". A multi and interdisciplinary group from different countries of Europe have published on @BJUIjournal this key research. 🔗tinyurl.com/ycyjt2h2
