In our institution-wide effort, The Campaign for UAB: Give Something, Change Everything, we seek to expand educational and cultural opportunities, advance research and patient care, and fuel economic development. Through the campaign, the Department of Urology seeks support for the following priorities:
- Research: Funding for novel and innovative research projects, in the realm of clinical, translational, and basic science urologic research led by our residents and faculty.
- Education: Funding for educational programs, including residents, and to mentor young clinical investigators within the program.
- Clinical Programs: Establishment of support for clinical programs, in the areas of urologic subspecialties including urologic cancer, minimally invasive and robotic surgery, urologic stone disease, female reconstruction, urinary incontinence, infertility, pediatric urology, and benign prostatic conditions.
- Endowments: Establishment of endowed chairs, fellowships, lectureships, and
scholarships.
