Federico Losco: My name is Federico Losco. I am a medical oncologist. My work involves providing patient care and conducting research on genitourinary tumors. I work at the Alexander Fleming Institute in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I am one of the organizers and one of the presidents of UroTarget. This is a conference we have been holding for seven years. This is the seventh edition, and we are delighted and proud to hold this type of conference in Argentina.

The UroTarget Philosophy is to bring together professionals involved in the care, assistance, and research of patients with uro-oncological diseases, and have discussions in an open environment; the priority here is to listen to different opinions and different views. And all this is based on actual clinical cases, on how to solve the problems we encounter in our day-to-day practice. Various professionals involved in patient care, such as medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, molecular biologists, geneticists, and many more, meet once a year here in Mendoza to discuss the latest findings in uro-oncology and apply those findings to their local reality.

We are pleased to have guests who are opinion leaders from this region, from Argentina, and from around the world, who enhance and enrich the conference. We are very happy to have UroToday here, and the support they offer us, and we are proud to be one of the first conferences held in the Spanish language that UroToday is covering for the entire community.

We think this conference can be very valuable for disseminating information in Spanish to a large number of professionals, patients, and the community in general interested in this topic. We are proud and happy to be content creators in Spanish, to be able to help, disseminate information, provide diversity, and make more inclusive the dissemination of knowledge among professionals and the general population interested in the topic.

Thank you.
