Welcome Message

Dear Colleagues, dear Friends,

It is a great honour for me and Professor Jonathan Barratt to welcome you to the International IgA Nephropathy Network in Prague to be held on 21–23 September 2021.

Due to the unpredictable worldwide situation related to Covid-19 pandemic, we have decided to organise the event as a fully virtual meeting. 

The main topics will be pathogenesis, pathology and treatment of IgA nephropathy. Special attention will be paid to the discussion on various pathogenetic mechanisms of IgA nephropathy targeted in ongoing randomized controlled trials. We believe that with the expansion of our therapeutic options, the outcome of patients with progressive IgA nephropathy will significantly improve. In addition to professional lectures and satellite symposia, there will also be poster sessions dedicated to the original communications.

Moreover, our partners will have an opportunity to promote themselves using their virtual stands.

I am looking forward to meeting you virtually at the 16th International Symposium on IgANephropathy in September 2021.

With best regards

Prof. Vladimir Tesar, MD, PhD, MBA, FERA, FASN
Congress Chair
