Fergus Caskey represented the Executive Committee at the 15th BANTAO Congress in Skopje, North Macedonia, that took place in September. Dr. Caskey presented Halima Resic with the ISN 2019 Pioneer Award in recognition of her research into the effects of frailty and depression on the nutritional status of hemodialysis patients.
