Posters are a great way for members of our kidney care community to showcase and share their clinical research and quality improvement initiatives.
We invite all BC kidney care teams to submit abstracts on local or regional research, education and patient care initiatives. All topics related to enhancing the quality of care for patients, including pre-dialysis, dialysis, and transplant are welcome.
