Our group, CEDIMI, presented 11 papers at the International Children's Continence Society congress. Our students presented in English in front of the world's leading experts.
The confidence of our students and the skill with which they presented their work, not only with great confidence, but also communicating impeccably in English, was a consensus. I'm very happy to see professors, former fellows and current students in this photo, who have made and are making history. It's a feeling of pride that I can't describe.

Today I searched for some photos sent to me by friends from the 39th Brazilian Congress of Urology, which I had the honor of chairing. A moment of sweet remembrance of this event that I hope fulfilled the expectations of Brazil's urologists.
It took two years of hard work to ensure that the program was top-notch and that there were no substantial flaws. I now have that pleasant feeling of having done my duty.
Many thanks to everyone who helped with the congress, especially the departments and the board of directors, represented by President Alfredo.
