I would like to thank the @AmerUrological for giving me the opportunity to deliver the John K. Lattimer Lecture at the AUA Annual Meeting 2026! A big thank you to everyone of you who has supported me along the en bloc resection journey! #AUA26#ERBT#UroSoMe
We have successfully completed all 3 days of #AUA2026, presenting a total of 14 abstracts. Sharing our work, engaging with questions, and learning from presentations by colleagues around the world was an invaluable experience. We now set our sights on San Diego.
A novel expansion of AUA FUTURE program in a conference-based mentoring dyad format is feasible, mutually beneficial, and increases mentee commitment to urology rotations and residency applications. Outstanding work by @RanveerVasdev@MSemins to expand impact of AUA FUTURE #AUA26
Honored to receive the @EUplatinum award for the Best Translational Paper published in European Urology in 2025.
Extremely grateful to work with a fantastic multidisciplinary team supported by @MayoUrology and @MayoClinicPath.
Dr. Yoshimasa Saito and colleagues investigate the genomic landscape of #mCRPC and evaluate the prognostic and therapeutic impact of pathogenic BRCA1/2 variants. 🧬

Retrospective real-world clinicogenomic study in @Nature
5893 pts with mCRPC
37% HRR pathogenic variants.
13% BRCA1/2.
389 received olaparib:
BRCA2: median OS 17.5 mo
BRCA1: 8.1 mo
HR 2.23 (P=0.008)
BRCA1 clearly worse.
Within BRCA2, subtype defines benefit ⚠️
BRCA2 loss: median OS 24.3 mo
HR 0.42 (P<0.001)
This is intra-BRCA functional heterogeneity ‼️
Not all BRCA alterations are biologically or therapeutically equivalent.
