Welcome to Nephrology Rounds from the Nephrology Division of
Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, Massachussets

The educational objective of this site and the corresponding published version of Nephrology Rounds is to provide interested physicians throughout the United States and around the world with a unique window on some of the most current information and discussion on important scientific and clinical developments in the field of renal medicine.

Nephrology Rounds is derived from recent Division rounds at Brigham and Women's Hospital, and has been designed as an efficient resource for the busy physician. The selection of topics and all editorial content are determined solely by the members of the Nephrology Division.

We also wish to acknowledge the major commitment to unbiased continuing education within the nephrology community demonstrated by Amgen, whose financial support in the form of an unrestricted educational grant makes the publication of Nephrology Rounds possible.

Our aim is to assist physicians in keeping abreast of the rapidly evolving changes in nephrology. We hope that you find this site to be useful to your practice. Please feel free to share your thoughts and comments with us.
