This joint initiative of the NCCR Kidney.CH, TRENAL (Translational kidney research—from physiology to clinical application), and two Kidney “Sonderforschungsbereiche” (SFB) from Germany (Regensburg and Berlin) aims to give participants insights into a wide variety of kidney functions and their relevance in renal disease.

On the programme were numerous clinical case discussions and lectures from kidney experts. In addition, the poster session offered students the opportunity to present their research projects to a wider audience. The participants particularly liked the introductory lectures as well as the opportunity to exchange and interact with the other clinicians and scientists.

Next year’s EUKISS will take place from September 2 to 5, 2020 in Berlin. The preliminary programme will soon be announced at www.eukiss.org.
