Dear Colleagues,

I am deeply honored and humbled to assume the position of APSN President. As I embark on this journey, I wish to express my sincere gratitude for your trust and confidence in me. Together, we will work tirelessly to promote innovation, collaboration, and growth.

Upon the closure of the excellent APCN&KSN 2024 held in South Korea, the Executive Committee (2024-26) made its debut, including Sunita Bavanandan as Honorary Secretary, Desmond Yap as Treasurer, Hyeong Cheon Park as President-Elect, Sydney Tang as Immediate Past President, Robert Walker as Chair of Award and Nomination Committee, Lily Mushahar as Chair of the CME Committee, Motoko Yanagita as Chair of Diversity and Equity Committee, Yusuke Suzuki as Editor-in-Chief of Nephrology, Jihyun Yang as Chair of Young Nephrologists Committee, and Rathika Krishnasamy and Wei Chen as Co-opt committee members. On behalf of the 2024 ExCom, I would like to extend my respects to the outgoing committee members for their dedicated service and invaluable contributions. Their hard work and commitment have set a high standard for us to follow, and we are immensely grateful for their tireless efforts in advancing our goals.

My deepest gratitude goes to Sydney Tang for his exceptional leadership over the past two years. Under his guidance, APSN has not only thrived but has also reached a bunch of new heights of achievement and significant milestones. He introduced the Core Retreat meeting to help envisage the strategy for society development, and improved governance with professional consultants legally and financially. He also strengthened the peer relations with many partners including KDIGO and ISPD. His unwavering commitment to our mission and goal has laid a strong foundation for us to build upon.

As we look ahead, I am excited to introduce the upcoming APCN 2025 scheduled from 5-7 December in Taipei. This event promises to be even more engaging and enlightening, with a focus on education and knowledge exchange.

In closing, I would like to reiterate our goal, which is to promote and encourage the advancement of scientific knowledge and research in all respects of nephrology. We will navigate the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead, ensuring that our community remains at the forefront of progress and unity. I invite each one of you to join me in this exciting journey, as we work hand in hand to create a brighter future for all.

Yours sincerely,

Xueqing Yu
President
Asian Pacific Society of Nephrology
