The Budapest Nephrology School\u2019s (BNS) continuing education programme was organised for the 21st time this year. Around 100 participants came from 31 countries to the almost one week long programme; there were over 30 invited speakers.<\/p>\n

\"RS21606__ZZS1966-scr\"<\/a>Dr. L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Rosivall, founder of BNS and former director of Semmelweis University\u2019s Department of Pathophysiology, emphasised at the opening ceremony that today BNS is irrevocably the part of European and Hungarian history of renal physiology. He reminded the audience that Hungarian nephrology was traditionally strong which is reflected by, for example, S\u00e1ndor Kor\u00e1nyi\u2019s discoveries a century ago. However, the development halted in mid-1980. The launch of the BNS in the 90\u2019s \u2013 possessing EU accreditation as well \u2013 was an important milestone. \u201cWe can say that every prominent nephrologist of the world has already appeared on the Budapest Nephrology School\u2019s programme\u201d \u2013 he emphasised.<\/p>\n

Dr. Eberhardt Ritz, former president of the International Society of Nephrology underlined \u2013 among others \u2013 the importance of the participation of young nephrologists.<\/p>\n

Dr. Andrzej Wiecek, president of the European Renal Association and the European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA) highlighted the international aspects of the programme and reminded the audience that the ERA-EDTA has been cooperating with the Budapest Nephrology School for a long time.<\/p>\n

Dr. Zolt\u00e1n M\u00e1th\u00e9, the new director of Semmelweis University\u2019s Department of Transplantation and Surgery which hosted the BNS, also welcomed the participants.<\/p>\n

The Hungarian Kidney Foundation, founded by Dr. L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Rosivall, supported the participation of 21 PhD students from Semmelweis University with scholarships. The President of the six day long English language Budapest Nephrology School mentioned that \u2013 as the novelties of this year\u2019s programme \u2013 the most interesting cases of the world-renowned speakers will be completed by the similar accounts of students. The first kidney Rubik\u2019s cube competition was also organised and the first \u2018kidney-wine\u2019 was chosen as well.<\/p>\n

\"RS21600__ZZS1918-scr\"<\/a>Dr. L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Rosivall emphasised that the school is a great opportunity for domestic research groups and the leaders of nephrology to conduct negotiations and form new partnerships with the participating internationally renowned experts. This year Professor Rosivall had a meeting with Dr. Christopher Chan, representative of the University of Toronto which is considered as a stronghold for haemodialysis. He also conducted important discussions with the vice-rector of the Japan based Tohoku University.<\/p>\n

The speakers of BNS presented the newest scientific and clinical results, procedures and novelties; the slides of the presenters are available at the website of the Hungarian Kidney Foundation. Dr. L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Rosivall also told us about the success of the presentation on the practices of the complex Hungarian patient care spanning from prevention to rehabilitation, from the education of the patient and family to psychoneurology. For the first time this year, young nephrologists had the opportunity to take part in the continuing education within the framework of the BNS.<\/p>\n
