1 Homer Smith, a leading renal physiologist, and Willem Kolff, the first to perform successful hemodialysis, both were winners of the prestigious Lasker Award. Homer Smith, a leading renal physiologist, and Willem Kolff, the first to perform successful hemodialysis, both were winners of the prestigious Lasker Award. These kidney pioneers met in New York City in the 1950s but do not seem to have found common intellectual ground. Would renal replacement therapy be different today if these two pioneers had collaborated? Jonathan Himmelfarb CJASN 2006;1: ©2006 by American Society of Nephrology
