The status of nephrology in European countries and the factors influencing the choice of nephrology as a career speciality.
The elements that affect the decision of a recent medical graduate to choose a specific career.
The opinions on the reasons why medical graduates have an unfavourable opinion on choosing nephrology.
The perceived methods that would encourage more medical school graduates to choose nephrology as a career.
Why are people not interested in pursuing nephrology?
