About Nexus

Introduced in October 2006, the ISN Nexus Symposia are designed to bridge the "bench to bedside" gap by intermingling researchers and practicing physicians to exchange knowledge and discuss clinically relevant information, and to challenge researchers to establish an active link between crucial basic research and clinical application.

In line with the ISN’s objective of extending nephrology into other disciplines, the Nexus Symposia take an interdisciplinary approach to encourage participants to explore the interrelation between diseases and their manifestations with other specialists in related disciplines.

Each program is specially structured to include three basic and three clinical parallel sessions to present cutting edge discovery within the field, balanced by the translational sessions which clearly link the research to practice and signpost the future directions and solutions at both the laboratory and patient care levels.

Further insight, educational exchange and debate will be facilitated through leading industry symposia, poster and oral presentation sessions, and networking breaks.
