Message from the President

Dear members,

This spring brings exciting news and renewed energy for the Genitourinary Pathology Society (GUPS). As one of the GUPS founding committee members, I am honored to serve as President and very proud of what the society has achieved in only 7 years under great leadership (Kiril Trpkov, Ming Zhou, Rajal Shah), by advancing the field of urologic pathology nationally and internationally, providing excellent educational activities and attracting hundreds of members from dozens of countries, in keeping with the organization’s mission and guiding principles.

As incoming President of GUPS, I am grateful for your continued support, contributions and dedication. I would like to thank all members who participated in the election process and take this opportunity to announce upcoming leadership changes.

I am very excited to introduce the newly elected members of the executive committee: Priti Lal (Treasurer), Jane Nguyen (Secretary), Rohit Mehra (Chair of Education Committee), and Maria Tretiakova (President-Elect), and our members-at-large: Stephania M. Bezerra (A.C. Camargo Cancer Center, São Paulo, Brazil), Christopher G. Przybycin (Cleveland Clinic, OH, USA) and Ankur Sangoi (Stanford University, CA, USA).
