In this remarkable series, BMC Nephrology Section Editor, Dr. Giorgina Piccoli interviews many of the pioneers of nephrology. With the help of Dr. Bernard Jaar and Dr. Hayley Henderson, the interviews we have selected for this series look beyond the many achievements and successes of these giants, as we aim to pass on to future generations the idea of how they were, and why they were passionate about their field. We aim to publish a new interview each month, and we hope you enjoy reading these.

BMC Nephrology is an open access journal publishing original peer-reviewed research articles in all aspects of the prevention, diagnosis and management of kidney and associated disorders, as well as related molecular genetics, pathophysiology, and epidemiology.
The Renal Association is the professional body for nephrologists and renal scientists based in the UK, and is active in promoting and disseminating research that may ultimately improve outcomes for patients with kidney disease. The objectives of the Association are: to advance, collate and disseminate knowledge of renal structure and function; to seek means for the prevention and treatment of renal disorders; to deal with any matters concerning the welfare of patients with renal diseases and the organization of services for their relief. Members of The Renal Association will receive a discount on BMC Nephrology's article-processing charge when they provide a discount code (which members can obtain by contacting the society) during the submission process.
Research Data Support is an optional Springer Nature service available to researchers who have datasets they want to make easier to cite, share and find. Learn more about this service and the many benefits of making your data publicly available.
