Goals
The goals of the MUSC Nephrology Fellowship are to:
- train excellent nephrologists with exposure to a
multitude of renal diseases including renal transplantation; - provide experience with nephrology related procedures;
- encourage an academic approach to medicine;
- equip the fellow for a variety of practice settings including an academic career.
Our fellows pursue a number of different career paths including academic appointments, clinical and bench research positions, and private practice. Structure of the Fellowship Training Program
For 2008-2009 we have seven clinical fellows and two research fellows to cover the Division’s multiple clinical and research activities. Certification by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) requires a minimum of 24 months training with at least 12 months involved in direct patient care.
