Among the educational opportunities highlighting technological advancements, this year’s meeting also emphasizes the disparities and shortcomings clinicians, researchers, and patients face in the field of nephrology.
These issues are reflected in sessions such as “Health Care Equity in Education, Clinical Care, and Community Engagement,” which will offer valuable perspectives on antiracism, the importance of cohort diversity in clinical trials, and the power of engaging with patients and their communities. Other presentations in line with these educational aims include “Social Determinants of BP and CVD in Patients with CKD” and “We Are Never Over the Rainbow: Nephrology Care for the LGBTQ+ Community,” which will evaluate the demographic factors that can influence outcomes or care approaches in certain patient populations.
The agenda will also feature a plethora of sessions concerning diabetic kidney disease, chronic kidney disease, nephrology in geriatric and pediatric populations, onconephrology, advances in bone and mineral metabolism, pharmacology, and discoveries in renal pathology.
The ASN’s goals for this year’s Kidney Week are solely learning based. As the presentations inform physicians, researchers, and other medical professionals on the newest discoveries in nephrology, they hope attendees can walk away from this meeting fully equipped to expand on this data and form new research questions to guide clinical practice and science moving forward.
