Respected teachers, seniors and my dear friends,.
It gives me great pleasure to address you all in the capacity of Hon. Secretary of ASU. As you are aware, our 33rd annual conference ASUCON 2022 was held at Ramaiah medical college, Bengaluru from 8Th to 10th July. We have witnessed a fantastic academic event after a long gap of 2years due to Covid.
The organizing chairman Dr D Ramesh, the organizing secretary Dr N Girish and their team have done the best to make it a memorable event. Preconference workshop on lasers was well appreciated by all. The scientific sessions were very good and informative. Dr Chengalvarayan our past secretary, worked hard in bringing out a good and informative scientific program. Interzonal sessions, separate sessions for residents and young urologists were the new attractions in the scientific program.
Dr Mallikarjun Reddy our immediate past president was instrumental in getting the indemnity policy for us. I suggest all the members to enroll in the policy and protect ourselves from the litigations. An expert panel has been constituted comprising of all the presidents of the state associations and Dr Mallikarjun Reddy to guide the legal committee of the insurance team.
The new ASU council has taken the office. I look forward to do good work under the guidance of our President Dr Avudaippan, Dr Mallikarjun Reddy, immediate past president and Dr Ginil Kumar, the President-elect and with the co-operation of new office bearers of the executive council.
We had good and fruitful discussions in our GBM held on 9th July and the minutes of the AGM was circulated to all the members.
More details of the ASUCON 2022 and the forthcoming academic events of ASU will be sent to you soon in the newsletter.
Wishing you the very best,
Dr. V. Surya Prakash
Secretary, Association of Southern Urologists
