ISN Fellow 2015-2016

The ISN Fellowship changed my world. I trained in Cape Town, South Africa, and it opened many doors for me—into research, general nephrology, advocacy, and career progression.

I am now heavily involved in ISN activities and was part of the first cohort of the ISN Emerging Leaders Program, which brought even greater opportunities.

The greatest challenge during my fellowship was leaving my young family for two years. However, I was able to bag two certificates, in addition to the ISN Fellowship certificate, and won an award for publishing two manuscripts during my training.

I have significantly developed my nephrology skills and become a thought leader in nephrology, both in Ghana and in Africa.
