Int Urol Nephrol. 2014 Sep:46 Suppl 1:S45-6. doi: 10.1007/s11255-014-0791-1.

Abstract

Underactive bladder (UAB) represents an unmet medical need. The proceeds of the 1st international CURE-UAB support allocation of resources and attention via public-private partnerships to advance UAB research. Small investments on the part of public institutes in collaboration with the private sectors can vanguard a serious and sustained global effort toward helping UAB patients.
