Volume 30 Number 2

In this edition of the Australian and New Zealand Continence Journal we are delighted to present the abstracts from the 32^nd National Conference on Incontinence. This event presents a fantastic way to showcase the broad work that continence and urological researchers are conducting across Australia and New Zealand, and it enables connections between researchers, health professionals and the community.

If you would like to know more about the journal, or to get involved in some way, members of our editorial team and myself will be attending the conference in Brisbane, Queensland, and would be happy to find a time to meet with you at the CFA booth. You can get in-touch with us at journal@continence.org.au.

While this edition is focussed on the abstracts, we continue to invite submissions for our upcoming publications. We encourage multidisciplinary submissions of quality research, and work hard to ensure visibility of published works in the journal. To facilitate this, all publications are available online, as diamond open access, which means there are no cost to authors or readers. Each article is allocated an individual Digital Object Identifier (DOI) number, to assist with referencing and tracking, and is now listed across a number of databases.

It’s these types of features and initiatives that help our journal stand out and present it as an excellent outlet for the submission and the publication of quality works. If you are a first-time author, our reviewing and editorial teams also offer feedback and support to assist on the track to a successful peer-reviewed publication. Performing research not only helps our community with increased knowledge and insights, but also advances the mission of the Continence Foundation of Australia and Continence New Zealand to promote bladder and bowel health, and eliminate the stigma and restrictions of all aspects of incontinence.
