Welcome
We are looking forward to seeing you in Bruges, Belgium in November – the first in-person meeting we have had since the COVID pandemic. This year will be a little different – we have teamed up with Eric Goffin and his colleagues from Brussels to expand the Home Haemodialysis component of the meeting which will have a strong focus on the need to grow Home Dialysis Therapies in Europe.
On the last day there will be a Policy Forum on this topic in which we will thrash out the issues and agree a plan of campaign! Also the pre-congress educational courses will be both in French and English! Of course there will be all the usual things you would expect from EuroPD – high quality speakers on topics ranging from basic science and the findings of the EU funded IMPROVE-PD programme, through qualitative research describing centre culture and modality selection, to life participation and technological innovations.
Our plenary speakers will look to the future on topics ranging from sustainability to big data and translation of basic science. Now is the time to ensure you have the dates in your diary for an exciting meeting – November 27th-30th!
Professor Simon Davies, President, Europd
