The primary objective of the SMRU Travel Award is to stimulate the scientific interests of residents and fellows in the study of male reproductive medicine by providing a structured didactic program of education.

Formal lectures include "Evaluation of the Infertile Male" by Dr. Jay Sandlow, "Fertility in the Spinal Cord Injured Male" by Drs. Nancy Brackett and Charles Lynne, and "Vasectomy Reversal: Tricks of the Trade" by Dr. Harris Nagler. Participants will attend the two-day post-graduate course organized by the SMRU, a roundtable luncheon, and SMRU workshops and seminars.
