The next ISN Forefronts Symposium will take place in Shenzhen, China from October 22 to 25, 2015. The focus is on immunomodulation of cardio-renal function. Registration opens in December, CLICK HERE for more information.
Hypertension and vascular disease are important consequences of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and they are major contributors to its high morbidity and mortality. The link between inflammation in CKD and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is widely recognized, but its pathophysiological basis is still unclear, as is the relationship of inflammation in CKD to innate and adaptive immunity.
In this symposium we will focus on cardio-renal pathophysiology and its links with immunopathology and inflammation.
ISN Forefronts bring together nephrologists with non-nephrologists from interrelated disciplines as well as basic and clinical scientists. They are deliberately limited in scope to allow for high levels of interaction, deep dialogue plenty of time for focused exchange.
