The ISN has long considered capacity-building and education for young nephrologists a key priority. The Young Nephrologists Committee (YNC) has played a significant role in ISN initiatives that help its members improve their scientific writing skills, interpret data, and build a professional network. Recent initiatives include an ongoing webinar series to conclude ahead of the World Congress of Nephrology 2025 in New Delhi, India.
This series offers practical guidance to help young nephrologists build confidence and increase their visibility within the international kidney care community. The sessions cover:
- Creating an effective abstract
- Creating and presenting a poster
- Delivering an oral presentation
Upcoming webinar: Delivering an effective oral presentation
Scheduled for November 11, 2024, the final session in the series promises to be an engaging and informative experience. High-impact speakers, including Kenar Jhaveri (USA) and Valerie Luyckx (Switzerland), will share their expertise in delivering compelling oral presentations.

YNC and Middle East Regional Board member Iman Alshamsi (UAE) commented, “I attended last year’s poster presentation webinar. The topic was relevant to young nephrologists, especially those preparing posters for the first time. And the YNC did a great job with the step-by-step guidance of poster preparation.”
