The American Society of Nephrology (ASN), in collaboration
with a research team from George Washington University (GWU), is conducting its
2nd annual survey of fellows training in nephrology. The goal of
this important survey is to better understand developments in the marketplace
for nephrologists.

for nephrologists.
The survey gathers data on the types of positions, practice
settings, and geographic locations where the next generation of nephrologists will
be working. Responses will help determine whether there is an imbalance in
different practice settings or regions. By administering the survey on an
annual basis, the research team hopes to understand trends in nephrology
fellows’ plans and job market experiences over time. This is a great
opportunity for nephrology fellows to share their experiences with the
nephrology community.
