It began in 2021, wondering why anyone would pick me for #NSMC. I applied in '22 and was surprised to be accepted. I’ve grown thanks to many of you (@hswapnil.medsky.social @kidneyboy.bsky.social ), though I still feel like a newcomer 😊
🙏 Grateful to be in this with @brianrifkin.bsky.social #NephJC

Did you know that the hope and dream of successful transplantation began in the 17th century — with the idea that crossing species could offer humankind an unlimited supply of organs?
A fascinating #NSMC podcast episode! 🎙️

22/ @drpallaviprasad.bsky.social is one of the nicest, open persons I ever met. Thank you for taking time your time and spending so much time with me #ISNWCN
(again, grateful for #NephJC and #NSMC- or else we’d probably never met)
12/ #ISNWCN For a whole year, @Pryia felt she was my sister from another part of the world #NephJC and #NephEdC / #NSMC made us very harmoniously work together—against different timezones and short deadlines
Fabulous job along the year pod 1 #NephEdC #NSMC #nephjc

Hi! I'm Cristina Popa, #NSMC graduate. Just lurking and forgot how fast time passed due to some deadlines.
Sorry for driving you crazy with this. This is my new fav thing to look at 🤩 #NephJC
Come and see, this is not a fairytale! It might be your reality this year!
#NSMC applications are still open!

2/ Here is a glimpse into my #NSMC journey as a 2022 intern!
I'm still the same shy person, but with a better understanding that I am, and I can become more than my self-imposed limits 😊

1/ #NSMC would bring you the things you may even don't know you need; it will shape your path, it will give you skills, confidence, and mentors& friends who you might never know another way
🐤1 month after graduation, this was delivered to me as a reminder #NephJCkidneys
Hi! Cristina Popa, #NSMC graduate, this year's batch, lurking from dialysis shift.
Humming in my had the lyrics from Katty Perry: "Cause you're hot then you're cold . . ." while preventing IDH #NephJC
Signing off, #NSMC intern, pod #SGLT3, Cristina Popa @NephroSeeker. Thank you to all who will read our blogs. We hope our enthusiasm transcends through words, and the info will make your life as a clinician a little bit easier.
Hei! I'm Cristina Popa, #NSMC intern. Joining late, lurking from dialysis shift.
Here was my endothelin antagonist perspective since I was a resident. Overhydradion= game changer for this promising meds

Hello! Cristina Popa, Romanian Nephrologist, #NSMC intern, joining late from dialysis shift.
But, as I get it, it’s never to late to #flozinate 🍎
#NephJC
Hi! I'm Cristina Popa, Romanian nephrologist, #NSMC intern, pod #SGLT3. No other COIs that the obvious one, being a #flozinator
After announcing EMPA-Kidney results, at #kidneywk, I was under the impression history was written.

11/ After a short recap of my #NSMC journey, I realize I only grew to become worthy of #NephJCkidneys award because of the people I've met.
⭐️Here is my pod #SGLT3, and whichever of them would've deserved to win

3/ I got over myself and made courage to pursue the thought I had a few months before -> #NSMC
After waiting impatiently, I got my answer through this mail ✨
Hi! Cristina Popa, #NSMC intern. Glad to lurk and learn from so many smart people! Still on dialysis shift, so I have to divide my attention between #NephJC and my patients with ADPKD (still hard to explain things about miR17 &MBE to them)
HI! I'm Cristina Popa, a Romanian nephrologist and a pod 3 #NSMC intern. Today I lurk to learn #NephJC.
The only 2 Romanians in @NSMCInternship 🇷🇴
💖First time meeting in real life with lovely & talented @CTeodosiu, but it was like knowing each other for a long time.
💭Good reality check! It seems #NSMC it’s not only a dream happening at 4AMs
