Welcome Message
Co-Chairperson Organising Committee

The Singapore Society of Nephrology (SSN) is committed to optimising holistic care of patients with kidney diseases in Singapore and the region. This year, our organising committee has chosen the theme “Pushing Frontiers in Nephrology”  for our upcoming regional 15th Annual Scientific Meeting 2025 in conjunction with the 9th  Congress of Asia Pacific Society of Dialysis Access.

The 3-day annual scientific meeting comprises of a 1-day pre-congress primer course and a 2-day main congress scientific programme with three separate tracks of sessions catered to engage our physician and allied health participants. We welcome both local and overseas delegates to join us this year. This creates excellent opportunities to learn about the advancement of nephrology and expand our networks globally. 

Together with the scientific committee (led by Dr Wong Jiunn, Dr Tan Ru Yu & Dr Ng Li Choo, Michelle), we have lined up an exciting programme which includes (i) pre-congress primer course on POCUS, Mineral Bone Disease and Dialysis Access workshops, and (ii) key highlights of our main congress include xenotransplantation, cardio-renal-mineral bone metabolism,  KDIGO guidelines updates, and a comprehensive range of talks on dialysis access and kidney care across the continuum. You will get to hear from our local and overseas speakers (including faculty from USA, UK, Asia-Pacific and SEA regions) as they share about the latest advancements in their areas of expertise.

Lastly, I want to express my deepest gratitude to our organising committee members, secretariats and all our partners, trade and sponsors for your incredible support to make this possible.

I look forward to seeing you in Singapore this October!
