Congratulations to CPH member Beth Swan, who was the proud recipient of the Best Scientific Oral Presentation Award at The European Diabetic Nephropathy Study Group which celebrated their 26th annual meeting in Castelldefels, Barcelona, Spain. Her presentation entitled 'Methylation patterns in genes that affect telomere function are associated with diabetic nephropathy' was well received by the group, which is made up of Nephrologists and Diabetologists with an interest in diabetic kidney disease ranging from the structural and functional to the clinical.  The annual meeting took place over two days and comprised presentations from researchers with plenty of time for both formal and informal discussions. Beth is supervised by CPH members Dr AJ McKnight (pictured) and Professor Peter Maxwell.
