Membership
The EAU counts over 16,000 members. It is the aim of the EAU to represent European urologists and to play a coordinating role in all European urological activities.
Please note that as of coming January 2013, the European Association of Urology will be invoicing their membership dues on an annual basis (January 1st through December 31st).
For that reason you may receive an invoice for the intermediary period covering any outstanding fees in 2012 and/or 2013. We would greatly appreciate to receive payment before January 1st, 2013.
