(2/3) Dr. John is one of our 2025 #UTIGA travel award winners. ✈️🏆. Listening to her #UTIhour presentation will more than explain why, the topic is similar :)
The title of her talk is "Regulation of Ribonuclease7 in Urinary Tract Infections"
(1/2) Our #UTIhour host, Arthika Manoharan, is a regular #UTIGA superstar 🌟 who won a 2024 travel award & presented at #UTICONF24
She's assembled a GREAT group of researchers to present on pediatric #UTIs this FRIDAY, 7/11, 9am EDT/1PM UDT (utiga.org/upcoming)
Let's catch up with her👇
Thank you to everyone who applied for a #UTIGA travel award! We are taking the applications back to our committee for review and will be in touch. ☺️
Had a great visit with the nephrology and urology group at #nationwidechildrenshospital this week. Thanks to Dr. Becknell for making it happen and all the connections! And great to see #UTIGA president and long time friend Dr. Sheryl Justice
With all the uncertainty from the new changes proposed at the NIH, #UTIGA leadership wants to affirm our steadfast commitment to our mission to improve care of those that suffer from UTIs, promote the next generation of biomedical professionals and advocate for our patients. We are in this together.
If you're presenting #UTI research at a conference, #UTIGA wants to help with the travel costs!
Applications for our travel awards are open until mid April, but that doesn't mean you can't apply today ;)
We encourage qualified #UTIGA members to review these guidelines!
