T he CUASF is supporting Research Scholarships, Research Grants and Fellowship Grants in Urology across Canada. We continue

to have the following awards: CUASF Early Investigator Research Scholarships, CUASF-KCRNC-KCC Kidney Cancer Research
Grants, CUASF-CMSHC Grant, CUASF-BCC Research Grants, and the CUASF-SIU International Scholarship Program. Last year we
awarded over $480,000 in grants and that number will likely continue to grow further over the next few years. This would not be
possible without the success and generous support of the CUA BOD, the CUA members, and the CUA Corporate Office.

New - The CUASF-BCC Research Grant Program
is now offering two grants of $50,000
and four grants of $25,000.

The CUASF would like to acknowledge all the tremendous work done by the members on the various committees and external
reviewers who review all the scholarship, grant and fellowship grant applications. Without your critical input, these peer-reviewed
awards would not be possible.
