Trying to do my part, with my 2 year old, to increase the nephrology workforce. Get them interested early!

Tweet from 2022 pointing out that UpToDate nephrology had 0 women out of 35 editors at the time.

Two years ago, we pointed out a glaring lack of women editors at UpToDate nephrology.

To their credit they’ve made significant progress with now 14 women included. www.uptodate.com/contents/aut...

Speak out. Your voice can drive real change.

I’ve been there, it’s sobering. Sending virtual support 💕

This is a great investment!

Honored to collaborate w/ @cmholscher @AllanBMassie & @ERGOT_JH team on @CJASN study of incident #hypertension in living #kidney donors. HTN may slow adaptive #eGFR increase postdonation. Future work should define optimal monitoring & HTN treatment in #LivingDonors. @SLUHospital

🙏🏼@HRSAgov for #ProposedRule to expand scope of reimbursable expenses for #LivingDonors thru @NLDAC_ASTS program. @ASNKidney also advocates for action to improve access to #NLDAC support regardless of donor-recipient relationship. #QualityCmte #PolicyCmte @ASNAdvocacy @KidneyNews

Thanks to @CJASN for publishing our new #EvidenceBased #Nephrology review, ‘#Risks of Living Kidney #Donation.’ Leading outcomes important to #LivingDonors include #kidney health, #surgical risks & #psychosocial effects. @Dorry_Segev @HeatherFHunt @alvinthomas13 @SLUHealthNews

Excellent work by the American Society of Nephrology to help craft a legislative bill that would expand support for #livingdonors!!!

Read Dr. Mannon's (@mannonmom.bsky.social; chair of the ASN Policy and Advocacy Committee) comments on the proposed bill here:
