Emerging Leaders

I completed pediatric nephrology and a Ph.D. in medical sciences at the Hospital Infantil de México Federico Gómez, UNAM, and trained at the Hospital for Sick Children. Currently, I am a research scientist at the Renal Research Institute pursuing a Ph.D. in clinical epidemiology at the University of Toronto. Through the ISN ELP, I aim to improve healthcare, academics, and research on disadvantaged populations by building local capacities and targeting equitable precision medicine.

I obtained my medical degree from the University of Hong Kong with distinctions. I completed my training in Nephrology and Advanced Internal Medicine in Hong Kong followed by postdoctoral fellow in Precision Medicine at Columbia University Centre for Precision Medicine and Genomics. I look forward to collaborating closely with emerging leaders in the field to improve kidney healthcare globally.

I am a nephrologist at Johns Hopkins, and I aim to bridge the gaps between medical progress and better patient results. Joining the Emerging Leaders Program, I envision collaborating globally for impactful kidney care enhancements. With a focus on workforce development and quality improvement, I aim to employ data-driven methods, including educational initiatives and quality metrics, to elevate kidney disease management.

I am a nephrologist based in Sydney, Australia. I have undertaken a PhD exploring the gap between clinical guidelines and real-world care, including strategies to help support patient education and adherence. I’m excited to collaborate with passionate people around the world to improve global kidney outcomes, including chronic kidney disease detection and early management, and person-centred care in end-stage kidney disease.

I graduated from Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, and completed my training and PhD program. I am a specialist in pathology, focusing on renal, GI, and transplant pathology, at the Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine. My interests include glomerulonephritides, tubulointerstitial nephritides, and vascular diseases. I also teach medical students at my alma mater, and I am a founder of a progressive learning platform, brainON.

My expectation is collaboration with worldwide experts and sharing knowledge.

I’m a transplant nephrologist at Westmead Hospital and senior lecturer in clinical epidemiology at the School of Public Health, Faculty of Medicine and Health, University of Sydney. I received my PhD ‘Health outcomes and cost-effectiveness in kidney disease’ in 2019 from the University of Sydney. I am an early-career clinical researcher with research interests in gender and intersectional disparities in access to, and outcomes from, transplantation, and living donor kidney transplantation.

I hold the position of Assistant Professor at the Institute of Nephro-urology in Bengaluru, India. Additionally, I am the program director for the Nephrology Social Media Collective and an instructor for the Glomcon Fellowship. My role also includes serving as the Secretary of Women in Nephrology India – Karnataka chapter. My achievements include receiving the Dr. H.L. Trivedi Gold Medal in DNB Nephrology (2017), the SVIMS Best Nephrology Thesis Award (2018), the CJASN Best Visual Abstract Award (2021), the NephJC Founders Award (2022), and the ISNCON Bansal Oration (2023). I look forward to learn from established leaders and my fellow emerging leaders.

I am currently working as an Assistant Professor in the nephrology department at AIIMS Bhubaneswar, India. I completed my MBBS from Lady Harding Medical College in New Delhi, followed by an MD in general medicine from Maulana Azad Medical College. My primary areas of research are tropical AKI, glomerular diseases, and obstetrics Nephrology. I have successfully published multiple research papers in various major peer-reviewed kidney journals. I hold the position of Editorial Fellow at NDT, a social media education working group of the International Society of Nephrology, and also serve as an Associate Editor at the Indian Journal of Nephrology. I have authored the book ”Textbook of Kidney Transplantation” and am actively involved in the women in the nephrology organization in India. By participating in the ISN’s Emerging Leaders Program (ELP), I am enthusiastic to engage in international collaboration and learn from a diverse group of experts to enhance the quality of care I provide to my patients.

I am a pediatrician and clinical researcher with dual specialist training in Nephrology and Epidemiology. I’m currently a PhD student at the PUCPR, Curitiba, Brazil. My research efforts have yielded valuable insights into the field of nephrology, reflecting the deep-seated commitment to improving patient outcomes and contributing to the scientific community.

I have a plan to promote a renal registries in resource-limited settings, trying to fill a gap in kidney care map systems, especially with the shortage of qualified and trained nephrologists.

As a 37-year-old nephrologist at Bordeaux’s University Hospital Center, my passion lies in hypertension and nephrology. With a postdoc in Manchester, I delved into multi-omics in hypertension and chronic kidney disease. My practice focuses on dialysis, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease. Committed to global healthcare access, I aim to contribute to this through the ISN Emerging Leaders Program. My goal is to build international collaborations, integrate into ISN, and promote diversity in omics research.

I am a nephrologist who completed clinical training in 2020 at the University of British Columbia, Canada. I am in the process of completing my PhD at the University of New South Wales, focusing on increasing the uptake of evidence-based medications in CKD.

I am a nephrologist and general physician at a tertiary referral hospital in Fiji. Over the years, I have been involved in clinical medicine, teaching and some research in a variety of health care settings. I hope to refine my leadership skills in dealing with challenges and developing strategies to improve kidney health in Fiji through networking and collaboration with local and international experts.
