SA Renal Society Research - Local Nephrology Research

SA Renal Society Research Database

South African
Research in Nephrology & Hypertension

We are assembling a database of local research in the field of nephrology and hypertension. Apart from showcasing our efforts, we hope that this section of the SARS website may encourage interaction and collaboration between colleagues, both here and abroad. This can never be a comprehensive listing, and the emphasis will be on more recent publications. We invite colleagues to make us aware of their work by emailing the abstracts to our database managers, Ben van Rensburg, Geoff Bihl and Trevor Gerntholtz.
