AUSTRALASIAN UROLOGICAL FOUNDATION
The Australasian Urological Foundation (AUF) was established in 1994 by the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand (formerly the Urological Society of Australasia). The Foundation's main activity is the provision of research funds, through a grants program, to encourage urological research projects carried out by members of the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand. The Foundation also supports programs within the medical profession as well as public awareness campaigns, such as prostate cancer awareness.

The Foundation receives no government funding and relies on donations from corporate and individual supporters. The Foundation operates on minimal administration costs, instead using its funds solely for the purposes of the grants program.
The Foundation's grant program provides funds to encourage and facilitate research in clinical Urology or in basic science as it applies to the practice of Urology, at a recognised research institution or teaching hospital in Australia or New Zealand.
The Foundation Board will not be offering any grants in 2011 and will instead direct the funds to other projects - to be advised shortly.
