    COVID-19 and research in pediatric urology
    (Elsevier, 2021) Harper, L.; Bagli, D.; Kaefer, M.; Kalfa, N.; Beckers, G. M. A.; Nieuwhof-Leppink, A. J.; Fossum, M.; Herbst, K. W.; ESPU Research Committee; Urology, School of Medicine
    COVID-19 began in December 2019 then spread worldwide. Providers, including pediatric urologists, had to adapt their clinical processes, and many non-covid research activities were suspended. COVID-19 impacts how research is financed, performed, and published, and is itself the subject of intense research. We present current research and publications specifically related to the urinary tract and the pediatric population.

    The impact of COVID-19 on research
    (Elsevier, 2020-07-08) Harper, L.; Kalfa, N.; Beckers, G. M. A.; Kaefer, M.; Nieuwhof-Leppink, A. J.; Fossum, Magdalena; Herbst, K. W.; Bagli, D.; ESPU Research Committee; Urology, School of Medicine
    Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has swept across the globe causing hundreds of thousands of deaths, shutting down economies, closing borders and wreaking havoc on an unprecedented scale. It has strained healthcare services and personnel to the brink in many regions and will certainly deeply mark medical research both in the short and long-term.

    The orchestration of gene expression and the editing role of microRNA
    (Elsevier, 2023-06) Fossum, M.; Kaefer, M.; Herbst, K. W.; Harper, L.; Beckers, G. M. A.; Nelson, C. P.; Garriboli, M.; Nieuwhof-Leppink, A.; Bagli, D.; Kalfa, N.; ESPU Research Committee; Urology, School of Medicine
    In this short educational communication the ESPU Research Committee presents the role of non-coding RNA and how these can affect gene expression. In particular we discuss the role of microRNA on post transcriptional changes and how these may cause pathological conditions within Pediatric Urology and how microRNA could be useful in future clinical practice.
