Conference Descriptions<\/h3>\n

Summer Core Curriculum<\/strong>
\nA core Nephrology summer curriculum is provided at the beginning of each academic year. \u00a0This 2-month curriculum is intended to provide fundamental practical concepts on various topics in Nephrology early in the training program. \u00a0This permits the accelerated acquisition of core information used in managing outpatients and inpatients.\u00a0 Topics may vary from year to year but include evaluation of renal function, hemodialysis (including continuous hemodialysis), peritoneal dialysis, evaluation and management of patients with acute and chronic renal failure, evaluation and management of acid-base and electrolyte disorders, evaluation and management of renal transplant patients, and others.<\/p>\n

CIIR Seminar Series<\/strong>
\nFaculty, postdoctoral fellows, or graduate students present research from faculty-sponsored projects. Outside faculty are also invited to present research. UVA faculty, fellows, and trainees present research in progress during this conference.<\/p>\n

Renal Grand Rounds<\/strong>
\nDistinguished national and international experts from UVA and other institutions present topics on different aspects of Nephrology (clinical and basic science).<\/p>\n

Medical Grand Rounds<\/strong>
\nFaculty from UVA and other institutions are invited to discuss clinical topics in medicine several times each year, with Nephrology faculty present. Internationally recognized Nephrology faculty are invited as visiting professors.<\/p>\n

Journal Club<\/strong>
\nThe purpose of Journal Club is to mentor\/develop the ability to critically analyze data reported in recent or landmark clinical and basic science literature. In general, papers are presented and discussed from high-quality clinical journals (NEJM, Kidney Int, Ann Int Med, Lancet, Transplantation) and basic science journals (Nature, J Biol Chem, Cell, Science, Proc Natl Acad Sci, J Clin Invest, Am J Physiol).<\/p>\n

Fellows Conference<\/strong><\/p>\n

These conferences are dedicated to discussing interesting cases and reviewing important topics in Nephrology. \u00a0Fellows present cases and relevant information from the literature on diagnosis and management to the group for discussion. \u00a0Topics are selected to cover the required material for board preparation and practice of general Nephrology. \u00a0The theme of topics includes physiology series, dialysis series, electrolytes series, glomerulonephritis club, NephMadness, and combined case conferences such as Hematology-Nephrology Conferences, Neph-Rheum Conferences, and Transatlantic Critical Care Conferences with Guy’s and St. Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust.<\/p>\n

Transplant Conference<\/strong>
\nParticipants from multiple subspecialties attend this conference, including Gastroenterology, Cardiology, Surgery, and Nephrology. \u00a0Topics in organ transplantation are presented and discussed by faculty and fellows.<\/p>\n

Morbidity and Mortality (M & M)<\/strong>
\nThese conferences are held quarterly to review near misses in daily work or patient care.\u00a0 They follow a scripted agenda and are aimed to improve the quality of care and operations with a focus on medical knowledge, patient care, delivery of care, and communication.<\/p>\n

Pathology Conference<\/strong>
\nThese conferences are held quarterly. Our dedicated renal pathologist presents the histopathological findings of kidney biopsies for clinical discussion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
