Claudio Ronco
Claudio Ronco (born July 12, 1951, Vicenza, Italy]) is an Italian nephrologist. He currently works as Director of the International Renal Research Institute of Vicenza IRRIV[1] and is a pioneer in the field of dialysis and in the pediatric intensive care.[2] Claudio Ronco is in the list of the Top Italian Scientists with an h-index of 133.[3][4][5]
Professor Ronco has been innovative in the path of communication to young scientists and physicians and has stimulated their curiosity with a special format defined: “cappuccino with Claudio Ronco” a series of science pills presented in this YouTube Channel.

Research
Claudio Ronco has developed the first miniaturised filters for hemofiltration performing the first treatment in the world with continuous arterio-venous hemofiltration in neonates and small infants. Subsequently he developed a miniaturised machine for the dialysis of neonates called CARPEDIEM (Cardio Renal Pediatric Dialysis Emergency Machine). For this reason he is considered a pioneer in the field of dialysis and in the pediatric intensive care.[10][11][12][13][14][15]
He has defined the modern classification of cardio-renal syndromes. He has been the first in the world to find a link between cardiologists and nephrologists for a common classification.[16][17][18]
Claudio Ronco has been the first nephrologist in the world to create a link between nephrology and intensive care giving birth to a new discipline called critical care nephrology.[19][20]
He has promoted the nomenclature standardization in the extracorporeal therapies[21] [22] and the study of the bioengineering applied to the extracorporeal therapies of vital support[23].
