What's new!
Giving Campaign!
The Neonatal Kidney Collaborative is excited to announce the launch of our first annual Giving Campaign! This campaign is a testament to our unwavering commitment to the smallest and most vulnerable members of our community – premature infants and their delicate kidneys. In the spirit of giving, we invite you to join us in making a lasting impact on the lives of these precious newborns. Your support will not only contribute to groundbreaking research and advancements in the field of neonatal kidney care but will also provide hope and healing to families facing the challenges of prematurity and kidney disease.
Professional Development Webinar Series

The purpose of the Professional Development Subcommittee is to provide career development resources for NKC members. The subcommittee does so by planning and organizing a series of career development webinars general yet specific to Neonatology and Nephrology.
Career development webinars are intended for faculty, trainees, and other professionals involved in neonatal nephrology care and/or research. Covered in the webinars are topics such as publishing your work, funding, academic career paths, converting educational and clinical work into scholarly products, time management and mentoring, among others.
Webinars are held live via Zoom and are also available in recordings via the NKC website.
