The ISN Online Scientific Writing Course, cohosted by Sociedad Latinoamericana de Nefrología e Hipertensión (SLANH), is currently holding its second edition, running live sessions on each of the four Saturdays in May.

The course, held in English, brings young researchers from the Latin American region closer to their goal of getting published as they receive exclusive, one-to-one tutoring from international experts on scientific writing. Participating faculty are:

• Arpana Iyengar (India)
• Giovanni Strippoli (Italy)
• Neesh Pannu (Canada)
• Marcello Tonelli (Canada)
• Alfonso Cueto Manzano (Mexico)

Dr. Vicente Sanchez Polo, a SLANH member, welcomed participants and faculty members at the launch on May 7. Dr. Jonathan Chavez Iñiguez, an ISN Young Nephrologists Committee member, then delivered a talk on some of the challenges facing young nephrologists in the region.

ISN members from Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Argentina, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, and Bolivia were selected for the 2022 edition.
