Abstract

This is the tenth publication in the series of the Honorary Members of the Polish Society of Nephrology which has been kindly hosted by Forum Nefrologiczne since the early 2013. The nine Honorary Members presented so far have included six figures from Poland and three from Germany, the USA and France. The series was opened with the biographical sketch of prof. Tadeusz Orłowski and its latest part depicted prof. Olgierd Smoleński. This issue offers a chance to present the figure of Professor Shaul Massry, the world-famous internist and nephrologist, the author of hundreds of original publications and books, the honorary member of numerous national scientific societies, the doctor honoris causa of many medical universities on various continents, the editor of many renowned medical journals, especially in the field of nephrology. Having been invited by many medical universities as well as the Polish Academy of Sciences Professor Shaul Massry was frequent visitor in Poland participating in many scientific conferences. His clinic hosted many young Polish doctors as trainees. For these reasons and others not mentioned here it is justified to call Shaul Massry a friend of Poland and Polish doctors.
