IVUmed Traveling Resident Scholarship
The IVUmed Traveling Resident Scholar Program affords residents the opportunity to experience urology in a developing world setting. American residents travel with Board-certified urologists to partner hospitals abroad to exchange ideas with their hosts and perform procedures such as open stone surgery, benign prostate surgery, hypospadias repair and incontinence procedures.

Residents PGY-3 and above are invited to submit the necessary application materials to the IVUmed Program Manager. The application deadline for travel between July 2010 and June 2011 is February 1, 2010.
