Thank you for your interest in the ISN – Interdisciplinary Science of Nephrology, the leading platform for translating cutting-edge renal research into accessible, interdisciplinary content. Below you will find the best way to connect with our team for contributions, partnerships, technical support, and general inquiries.
Editorial & Content Inquiries
We are always seeking high-quality, evidence-based submissions that reflect the interdisciplinary nature of nephrology. We welcome original research summaries, expert commentaries, features on renal technology, and perspectives from allied health professionals (dietitians, social workers, nurses). Our platform is dedicated to translational science communication, not the publication of original peer-reviewed primary research.
Email: [email protected]
- Editor-in-Charge: Dr. Vivienne L. Moreau
- Initial Response Time: We aim to acknowledge receipt of your inquiry within 3–5 business days. This period allows for initial internal review by our editorial board.
- Submission Criteria: All potential contributions must be scientifically rigorous, relevant to kidney health, and written for a general but informed audience.
Partnerships & Collaborations
ISN actively collaborates with academic research centers, patient advocacy organizations, and medical technology developers to advance global kidney health awareness. We are open to discussing synergistic projects that align with our mission to bridge scientific disciplines and improve public health literacy.

- Examples of Collaboration:
- Educational Outreach: Co-developed content series or special issues focused on a critical interdisciplinary topic (e.g., the gut-kidney axis).
- Research Promotion: Dissemination of key findings from major renal research consortia or clinical trial results to a broader audience.
- Response Time: Our Partnerships Director will thoroughly review collaboration proposals and respond within 5–7 business days.
