Not sure whether I can attend as may have prior commitments but was curious how language would be addressed. Thanks!

¿Será en inglés, en español o en ambos?

Interested in learning more about the art of microscopic examination of the urinary sediment and its clinical applications? @jrseltzer.bsky.social @swethakanduri.bsky.social and I will be running a Hands-On Workshop at KidneyCon this year. Come join us! @kidneycon.bsky.social May 1-3. Register ASAP
