Renew your ISN Membership at ASN Renal Week 2009
In 2009, thanks to ISN members' contribution:
o 35 fellows from emerging countries have attended hands-on training in advanced host institutions allowing them to acquire state of the art knowledge in basic and clinical nephrology, dialysis, transplantation, epidemiology and educational methods.
o 30 renal units in emerging countries have paired up with established centers of excellence in the developed world through the Sister Renal Centers Program. ISN aims to help in building self-sufficient centers of excellence in the emerging world through supporting educational activities between the two centers.o 6 research, prevention and screening programs were implemented to ensure early detection and management of non-communicable diseases, especially chronic kidney disease, hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.o
45 Continuing Medical Education (CME) meetings have been supported, allowing some 14.000 doctors and health care practitioners from the emerging world to benefit from essential teaching and training by worldwide opinion leaders in nephrology.
To help us achieve even better results in 2010, do not wait longer and RENEW NOW!
