Since its foundation in 1960, the International Society of Nephrology (ISN) has pursued the worldwide advancement of education, science and patient care in nephrology. This goal was achieved by means of the Society's journal and the organization of international congresses and symposia. In order to better reach its colleagues and patients in economically less developed countries, the ISN expanded its activities as of 1980 by a large number of specific programs aimed at these regions |

Video Legacy Project and online Interviews |
| |
 |
|
| |
 |
23 interviews |
| |
 |
This project is being handled by Dr. Stewart Cameron of the UK and Dr. Kim Solez of Canada. |
| |

Twenty-three interviews with nephrologists of exceptional merit, have been recorded. Eight interviews are being organized and will be completed soon. Of the first CD ROM with interviews, 5000 copies had been made and distributed in North America and Europe. The material, which is still only on tape, will be digitized at a later point in time. The Commission will attempt to include Bibliography and CV in the CD ROMs. The 1997 ISN Video Legacy Project CD-ROM containing interviews with Drs. Abel, Brun, Bywaters, Merril, Humes, Heptinstall, Kincaid-Smith, Kolff, Oshima and Schribner, can be obtained through the office of Dr. Kim Solez. The 2000 CD-ROM will tentatively contain interviews with Drs. Legrain, Migone, Pirani, Richet, Seldin, McGeown, Churg, Joekes, Dossetor, Robinson and Schreiner. Information regarding the interviews can be found at: http://www.nature.com/isn/education/history/full/ed_051027_1.html |
