The Think Tank is the premier annual bladder cancer-specific medical meeting in North America and the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network’s essential vehicle for advancing collaborative bladder cancer research efforts. Since its inception in 2006, this scientific meeting has focused on identifying obstacles and creating solutions in bladder cancer research and has fostered discussions to help define priorities for advancing bladder cancer research.

Think Tank facilitates discussions that help define priorities for advancing bladder cancer research, including all parts of the patient and caregiver journey, from diagnosis to treatment to survivorship.  Meeting attendees include leading urologists, oncologists, researchers, pathologists, social scientists, patient advocates and industry representatives, all who are dedicated to improving the diagnosis and treatment and survivorship of bladder cancer.

GSRGT will have both an educational and research mission to promote evidence-based diagnostic and treatment standards across the world through conferences on specific topics (e.g. penile/testis cancer), along with other initiatives. These activities will gather contributions from international thought leaders on the subject matter and integrate cutting edge innovative research topics such that exciting novel discoveries can be disseminated across the global scientific community. Most noteworthy, we plan to integrate patient advocacy as part of this effort such that the concerns and feedback of our patients can be integrated into our educational and research mission.

The Advanced Prostate Cancer Consensus Conference (APCCC) was initiated to provide a forum to discuss and debate current questions on the clinical management of men with advanced prostate cancer, with a special focus on these unclear situations. Two days of the conference are dedicated to high-level presentations, discussions, and debates led by the panel of international and interdisciplinary prostate cancer experts to summarize and conceptualize the available literature and evidence.

Due to the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic, APCCC 2021 will occur virtually. The following year, APCCC 2022 will be hosted as a hybrid event comprised of a face-to-face meeting as well as in an online format.
