It is your chance to highlight someone you believe has made a difference to nephrology today and has helped advance care or research in the field.

Robinson Award, which acknowledges outstanding achievements in the field of education in nephrology.

The winners of the 2015 Awards will be selected by an ISN Awards Committee, chaired by ISN President Giuseppe Remuzzi.
