   During the meeting professor Konradi presented the oral presentation "ASSOCIATION OF MARINOBUFAGENIN-INDUCED NA/K-ATPASE INHIBITION WITH SALT-SENSITIVITY OF BLOOD PRESSURE IN RESISTANT HYPERTENSION AND EFFECTS OF ALDOSTERONE ANTAGONIST" and participated like co-chairman with professor M. Walters (Glasgow, UK) oral session concerning the brain pathology.
