Between 28 August and 2 September 2023, the Hungarian Kidney Foundation and Semmelweis University organized for the 27th<\/sup> time the internationally renowned summer nephrology university, known as the Budapest Nephrology School, which this year was hosted by the Department of Pathology and Experimental Cancer Research.<\/div>\n

This year’s course, which is also supported<\/a> by the Hungarian Society of Nephrology, the European Renal Association (ERA) and the International Society of Nephrology (ISN), attracted European participants as well as nephrologists from Indonesia and Australia. The course was available free of charge to PhD students at Semmelweis University, while other young colleagues were offered scholarships to support their participation.<\/p>\n

The scientific program covered the most exciting and novel areas of nephrology, from molecule to bedside. The newly discovered regulatory mechanisms of salt and water balance and their interaction with metabolism, the role of blood pressure and the central nervous system, the latest methods to visualize kidney function at the molecular level, glomerular diseases, transplantation, dialysis and rare diseases were also discussed. Renowned speakers from abroad were joined by lecturers from Semmelweis University. The course is accredited by the EACCME (European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education), so participation and taking the test exam was worth 30 CME credits worldwide.<\/p>\n

The program is more than just a high-level training course, it is a workshop and an international professional meeting for debate, building friendships, networking and cultural events. An event at which students could practice Tai Chi, enjoy a dance performance and learn the secrets of the Rubik’s Cube during the break. The leisure time was enriched by joint activities, including a wine dinner, a wine competition, a Danube cruise, an organ concert, a tour of the main building of Semmelweis University, a Parliament guided tour, through which the participants from abroad could also get a taste of Hungarian hospitality.<\/p>\n\r\n [slb_exclude]\r\n
