Inaugural Glomerular Disease Preceptorship Held at UKE Hamburg

The Hamburg Center for Kidney Health (HCKH) at Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE Hamburg) hosted a successful inaugural Glomerular Disease Preceptorship on December 2–3, 2024 in partnership with ISGD. Over the course of two days, the Hamburg faculty presented their research on a broad spectrum of glomerular biology and disease states, delved into current translational and clinical care topics, and facilitated lively discussions of complex cases contributed by participants. The preceptorship also included a practical course demonstrating the UKE assay technique for anti-nephrin antibodies, an introduction to Hamburg's extensive glomerular disease registry and biobanking projects, a guided tour of the Hamburg Center for Kidney Health, and a presentation outlining ISGD's Centers of Excellence program.
