Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Sunita R Deshmukh, BMedSci (Hons) Sunita experienced a broad range of education methods during her school and undergraduate studies as a medical student. This has given her a strong appreciation of the value of good teaching leading to a good education. She is a post-Graduate medical student at the University of Nottingham Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, UK. Consequently she has both the exam-taking student's perspective as well as a great enthusiasm to explain the remarkable array of bio-physico-chemical mechanisms comprising the renal system. Her aim is to produce a book that contains core knowledge and identifies and emphasises essential learning points, whilst also enabling readers to explore additional information if they are so inclined. Newton W K Wong Newton is currently a senior medical student at the University of Nottingham Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, UK. He developed a liking and passion for the renal system following his renal sciences module at Nottingham. It never ceases to amaze him how two small structures in the human body can have such a significant systemic impact. He hopes this book will help fellow students understand the importance of the renal system and even generate some serious interest!
