Cognitive decline in Nephro-Neurology: European Cooperative Target
CONNECT Action aims to coordinate research on cognitive impairment in chronic kidney disease (CKD). This requires exchanging clinical information between nephrologists and neurologists, and between neuroscientists and kidney physiologists, guided by big data analysts.
This collaborative network will define new experimental paradigms, their translational value and, in turn, focus on new interventions in the field of cognitive impairment.

#COSTactions last four years, but what happens after? Today's focus is on keeping the networks together after the Action ends. Starting with presentations from former Chairs Giovanna Ponte, Harald Schmidt, Sergi Castellví-Bel and Théo Cavalieri who have already managed to do it.
ERA is thankful to Prof. Serhan Tuglular in her role as Chair of the Renal Disaster Relief Task Force that is fully engaged in supporting the coordination of the relief efforts.
