The IAHN awards the Evamaria Kinne-Saffran Lecture in History of Medicine on the occasion of every conference. Evamaria Kinne-Saffran (1941-2002) was a vivid supporter of the value of interdisciplinary bridges and a convincing advocate of the importance of the past in understanding the present and predicting the future. The lecture is aimed to support young scientists - nephrologists interested in History and historians interested in Nephrology alike -, who have recently contributed to the field of the History of Nephrology. The Lectureship covers the expenses (up to US$ 2,000) to attend the IAHN Congress, where the recepient will present a lecture. The Association welcomes nominations for the 2013 Award. The Scientific Committee will evaluate all nominations and then select the winner.
