Keynote presenters span the globe, from the Josef Penninger, MD in Vancouver, British Columbia to Matthias Girndt, MD in Germany along with Drs. Mark Sarnak from Tufts University in Boston and Dr. Siqin Ye from Columbia University in New York. The presentations selected by our scientific planning committee showcases the multitude of issues facing our patients every day.
Plenary Sessions
The Plenary Sessions are designed so that as a community, we could all come together on topics such as Global trends in peritoneal dialysis and vascular access in the 21st century and discuss beyond just physicians or nurses, but as a combined healthcare unit, the issues facing all of our patients. These sessions help continue the overall dialogue of treatments and methodology across the world. Having a panel of guests speakers to talk to their specific experience as well as listening to others, we could commensurate and encourage growth in the clinical and bedside practices that makes a difference to the many patients we interact with on a daily basis.
Three Track Sessions
