The NephroNet Nephrology Update conference attracts clinicians from across the country to participate in a unique learning environment where clinicians, NPs, and allied personnel can learn from the some of the most prominent Nephrology thought leaders in the world.
Our objective is to facilitate collaboration between practicing physicians, clinical trial professionals and industry. We expect upwards of 100 MDs, NPs, and industry professionals in attendance, and therefore have designed the session to be highly interactive, including extended Q/A sessions to maximize learnings. This is a great opportunity to bring questions to a table of experts.
This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Medical Association of Georgia through the joint provider ship of Southern Alliance for Physician Specialties CME and NephroNet. The Southern Alliance for Physician Specialties CME is accredited by the Medical Association of Georgia to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn up to 12 MOC points ABIM MOC in the American Board of Internal Medicine's (ABIM) Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program. Participants will earn MOC points equivalent to the amount of CME credits claimed for the activity. It is the CME activity provider's responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABIM MOC credit.
NephroNet will also be hosting a dinner event, “A Night in the Gardens” at the Longleaf Restaurant in the Atlanta Botanical Gardens for additional networking. This event is optional and non-accredited. Cost is $50.

About the organizer
NephroNet is an organization dedicated to providing resources to patients, practicing clinicians, and all individuals that are concerned with improving the care of patients with kidney disease. For patients, our goal is to be an educational resource that provides practical information to patients and their families. We endorse and are motivated as an organization to improve minority participation in CKD clinical research. We believe that by improving patient education of their disease, they will be better equipped to work with their physicians.
The NephroNet membership is composed of both academic and private physicians that work closely with the National Institutes of Health (NIH), American Society Nephrology, as well as large and small healthcare companies that are motivated to treat chronic kidney disease. The NephroNet membership has experts in all areas of kidney disease and is available for consultation that will ultimately bring new therapies to the renal community.
