News from ERA-EDTA:
ERA-EDTA Congress Copenhagen
November 2017 Edition NDT
From 24 to 27 May 2018, the Bella Center, Copenhagen will be the venue of the 55th ERA-EDTA Congress.
Our aim is to provide you with an update on the most relevant topics in the field of nephrology with emphasis on recent results of both basic and clinical research.
The programme contains more than 40 symposia and more than 30 mini-lectures covering many important aspects of kidney disease from basic science to clinical nephrology, renal replacement therapy and transplantation with special attention being paid to diabetic kidney disease and the interaction between nephrology and other branches of internal medicine, e.g. cardiology, or rheumatology, especially in terms of the recent progress in the treatment of kidney disease.

European Nephrology Portal (ENP)
All about nephrology—All in one place!
The ENP (launched at the 2016 ERA-EDTA Congress) is a fundamental educational tool for all Nephrologists in Europe and all over the world.
More than 7100 users (both ERA-EDTA and Congress members) have already registered to ENP to access hundreds of the 2017 Congress Speaker e-materials of the scientific programme, selected industry symposia and more than 1000 e-posters.
ENP makes scientific content that is available across multiple ERA-EDTA platforms accessible in one place. A meta-search function allows to easily find content and to access the relevant files from different ERA-EDTA content sources. At the moment, ENP content will feature speaker materials from ERA-EDTA Congresses, e-Posters and NDT-Educational Summary Reports of selected Congress presentations, ERA-EDTA working groups, CME courses slides, the ERA-EDTA Dialogues and ERA-EDTA’s Young Nephrologists’ Platform programme. New content is continuously being added.
Access to ENP is easy as members can access the site using their E-mail address, they will be automatically recognised as ERA-EDTA members and in few minutes they will be able to view the exclusive content for them. Non-ERA-EDTA members can access a large number of materials by creating an account at www.enp-era-edta.org
‘ERA-EDTA Dialogues’on ENP: a virtual roundtable to discuss specific questions about Nephrology.
ERA-EDTA Dialogues has been launched to enable online discussions about Nephrology. In it, Senior Editors, with the help of Junior Editors and Invited Experts, offer their knowledge and expertise to Nephrologists, especially the youngest, to start and comment on discussions, allowing them to learn through an interactive dialogue.
To access all the ERA-EDTA Dialogue discussions, click the specific banner on the ENP website: www.enp-era-edta.org and log in with your username and password.
