About the ISN SRC Committee

The ISN SRC Committee oversees the ISN SRC Program, which is part of the overall capacity building effort of the ISN and strives to bring essential teaching and training to doctors and healthcare practitioners in low resource countries (i.e. LICs, LMICs and UMICs as per World Bank status). By linking emerging centers with supporting centers, the SRC Program aims at enhancing the clinical practice of nephrology at emerging centers through a variety of training exchanges.
