Rasheed A. Balogun, MD, in collaboration with the Nigerian counterpart at Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital, was awarded support to continue the International Society of Nephrology’s Sister Renal Center (ISN-SRC) program for two years in 2023 and 2023. The funding will cover education and training of nephrologists at the hospital.

The ISN-SRC program pairs an Emerging Center (EC) from a low-resource country in need of training with a Supporting Center (SC) from a high-income country. The long-term goal is for the EC to become self-sufficient and able to provide better treatment and outcomes for patients with kidney diseases.
