This theme was chosen to encourage the adoption of the latest technology and a multidisciplinary approach that is more adaptive to real-world conditions, encompassing the management spectrum, from primary prevention efforts to innovative follow-up therapies.

We proudly invite all colleagues to join us at The National Congress of Nephrology (KONKER), in conjuction with PERNEFRI Annual Meeting 2025, which will be held from 2-5 October 2025 in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan.
