• Position ASPN to be the leading voice of pediatric nephrology by collaborating with external organizations to enhance ASPN’s profile.
  • ACTION: Collaborate with American Board of Pediatrics to access centers that consistently have residents go into Nephrology. This could offer us an opportunity to target for discussion; maybe reaching out to those Pediatric Residency Program Directors as well.
