Thank you to Professor Fiona Karet for providing a fascinating insight into her longstanding work as a kidney specialist in last night’s Erasmus Seminar.
Fiona gives so much of herself to the College and the community that it’s easy to forget the intensity and impact of her clinical and research career: working with patients with rare kidney diseases to understand their conditions and their genetic causes; establishing standard-setting clinical practice to provide access to the variety of specialists needed to support their care; and mentoring junior doctors to apply the lessons learned.
Following the lecture the Master, Dr Mike Rands, and Vice-Master Professor Angela Wood took the opportunity to thank Fiona on behalf of the College for her service as Vice-Master over the past seven years, which came to an end this term.
