Abstract

This publication no. 11 is another one in the series by the same authors devoted to honorary members of the Polish Society of Nephrology, which is the highest honour granted by the Society to outstanding Polish and foreign scientists and researchers in recognition of their professional input in the development of science, the Society itself and the Polish nephrology. To date, more than 70 remarkable researchers from Poland, Europe and the USA have received this title, the presentation of whom has been continuing in Forum Nefrologiczne since the early 2013. We have portrayed 10 outstanding figures so far, 6 from Poland and 4 from other countries. The person opening the series was the first President of the Polish Society of Nephrology, the legend of the Polish internal medicine, nephrology and transplantology, Professor Tadeusz Orłowski, and the latest figure presented in the previous issue of Forum was Professor Shaul Massry, the world-famous nephrologist. This elite company is joined now by Professor Kazimierz Trznadel, the doyen of the Polish nephrology, the creator of the first dialysis centre in Łódź, the co-founder of the Polish Society of Nephrology, a man of a great stature.
