EURECA-m (EUropean REnal and CArdiovascular Medicine) is an ERA-EDTA Working Group.

The ERA-EDTA has a large basis of clinicians and investigators interested in the relationship between the kidney and the cardiovascular system.
The large interest on this theme-area among the ERA EDTA membership was the basis for a group of clinical investigators with an interest in the field (the ERA-EDTA President Gerard London, Adrian Covic, Danilo Fliser, David Goldsmith, Bengt Lindholm, Alberto Martinez, Gultekin Suleymanlar, Ziad Massy, Alberto Ortiz Arduan, Andrzej Wiecek and Carmine Zoccali ) proposing to the ERA-EDTA council the creation of a EUropean REnal and CArdiovascular Medicine (EURECA-M) working group. In May the council approved this WG and ratified the proposal by the original nucleus to name Carmine Zoccali as the first WG chairman.
