WCN2017: Long-term education for all
WCN 2017 is about sustainable and diverse nephrology teaching. Several courses offer continuous learning for nephrologists of all levels. Register for the early bird deadline before January 23, 2017.
This time around, the WCN 2017 scientific program is complemented by novel Nephrology Biennial Review (NBR) courses given in English, Spanish and Portuguese, covering the most important research from the past two years across different fields within nephrology.
Hands-on and interactive courses on interventional nephrology, organized jointly with the Brazilian Society of Nephrology, are also open to congress participants. Lectures on renal pathology, renal systems biology, clinical epidemiology and clinical trials, will be given by some of the most highly-respected peers within the field, from multiple countries.
“There are 12 different courses available to participants that reveal the high-level science and innovative educational aspect of this congress,” comments Scientific Program Chair Kai-Uwe Eckardt.
“The program has been adapted to needs in the region, local speakers are getting involved and there are plans for two educational courses in Spanish and Portuguese,” he adds.
Because places are limited, pre-registration for these supplementary sessions is required and delegates must complete the appropriate section during the online registration process.
