Program Introduction

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Scientific Program Committee, it is our pleasure and honor to invite you to the 23^rd  Asian Pacific Congress of Nephrology in conjunction with the Annual Meeting of Taiwan Society of Nephrology (APCN X TSN 2025), taking place in Taipei, Taiwan, from December 5 (Fri) to December 7 (Sun), 2025

Our mission is to deliver a comprehensive scientific program that showcases the latest advancements in various aspects of nephrology, bridging basic research with clinical medicine.

The program has been meticulously curated by esteemed experts from the Taiwan Society of Nephrology and the Asia-Pacific Society of Nephrology, centered around the theme: " : Gene, Immunology, Vast, MEtabolism at its Finest." This theme highlights the importance of integrating breakthroughs in genetics, immunology, vast data analytics, and metabolic science to pave the way for optimal approaches to kidney health. The acronym GIVE also embodies Generative AI, Innovation, Venture, and ESG, reflecting our vision for progress and sustainability in nephrology.

The program of APCN X TSN 2025 is tailored to address the unique and pressing needs of the Asia-Pacific region. The program will also include the Taiwanese experience, featuring the Taiwan Renal Data Registry System, CKD prevention program, hepatitis C eradication, and leptospirosis. In addition, the APCN X TSN 2025 will provide a platform for international collaboration through joint symposia with prominent nephrology organizations, including ISN, ISPD and KDIGO. These cross-cultural exchanges will undoubtedly enrich the congress. Finally, APCN X TSN 2025 will introduce AI-powered simultaneous translation in specific sessions, aiming to alleviate language barriers for presenters and attendees from the Asia-Pacific region.

In our commitment to fostering intellectual engagement and the exchange of ideas, we offer opportunities for oral and poster presentations, allowing participants to present their research and engage in meaningful dialogue with their peers.

Recognizing the importance of cultivating future leaders in nephrology, we have designed tailored educational programs to inspire and support the next generation of nephrologists, empowering them to shape the future of nephrology research and practice.

Our host city, Taipei, renowned for its warm hospitality and vibrant cultural heritage, offers a unique blend of modern innovation and traditional charm. Beyond the congress, attendees will have the chance to explore Taipei’s iconic landmarks, bustling night markets, and world-class cuisine, promising a memorable and enriching experience.

Your participation and expertise are integral to the success of APCN X TSN 2025, and we eagerly anticipate the engaging discussions and scientific exchanges that will define this event.

We cordially welcome you to APCN X TSN 2025 in Taipei, Taiwan.
