The event, scheduled on June 25-26 in the charming city of Kaunas, virtually concludes the activities of the COST-Action 'CONNECT 2020-2024', the international research network on cognitive decline in chronic kidney disease, which had among its main players the scientific director of Biogem, Prof. Giovambattista Capasso. Even if unable to be physically present, he is involved in the two-day Lithuanian meeting with several talks, including the opening and closing talks. Prof. Capasso says that this meeting ''represents the opportunity to sum up the results achieved up to now from the CONNECT project (which will last until next October), but will serve, above all, to lay the foundations for an immediate re-launch of the initiative, with the hope of getting new EC funding''. A result that Professor Capasso thinks is likely, considering the successful ''networking of studies, moreover multidisciplinary, on the causal relationships between chronic kidney disease and cognitive disorders, considered pioneering only until a few years ago, but which today arouse the attention of the entire scientific community''.
