The aim is to facilitate a high-quality symposium in the assessment and treatment of end organ damage in kidney and metabolic disease by providing new markers of interest, ultrasound and scanners and laboratory equipments of interest in kidney, liver and diabetes management and assessment.
Furthermore, to gain insight in gut peptide biology and clinical implications for diabetic and obese patients.
The meeting will be held on June 18-19, 2021 in Copenhagen (Denmark) at Bella Sky Conference & Events, Center Boulevard 5, 2300 as well as VIRTUALLY.

Nephrology Virtual Preceptorship: Fracture Prevention in CKD
Bone disease has some enigmatic aspects because of the wide variety of its presentations, the limited ability to make correct diagnosis without invasive procedures, but a rapidly expanding field of treatment options that do require precise diagnosis.
The ‘Nephrology Virtual Preceptorship: Fracture Prevetion in CKD’, a fully virtual event organised by CKD-MBD Working Group, one of the official ERA-EDTA Working Groups, has been held on December 4, 2020.
The purpose of the meeting was to become familiar with the disease, increase enthusiasm facilitate networking and exchange for this challenging component of nephrology and endocrinology.
The webcast of the Course is available.
Introductory Course on Epidemiology
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak, there are travel restrictions in place in many European countries, therefore to ensure the safety of all participants, the CME Introductory Course on Epidemiology has been postponed to 2021.
Many nephrologists perform some kind of research in addition to their clinical duties. The aim of this epidemiology course is to teach nephrologists, pediatric nephrologists, and nephrology researchers basic epidemiology principles and to have them practice their new skills in hands-on sessions (exercises, discussions and SPSS). The knowledge and skills obtained will assist participants to improve the quality of their nephrology research.
