In 2010 the ERA-EDTA Council decided to create the ERA-EDTA Awards.
The first ERA-EDTA Awards were given in 2011 during the opening ceremony of the Prague Congress.
Dedicated to the well-known Master in Nephrology, the first Stanley Shaldon Award was given in 2012 at the ERA-EDTA Congress in Paris.
The selection and evaluation of the award candidates is among the tasks of the Scientific Advisory Board (SAB).
