Fellowship Opportunities

for International Trainees

The ISN Fellowship Program offers grants to early-career professionals from low, lower-middle, and upper-middle income countries to train at a host center of their choice. Fellowship opportunities are highly customizable so that applicants may pursue training opportunities that meet the unique kidney care needs of their community. Fellowships in renal pathology are available, including short-term training opportunities (minimum three months). Applicants are encouraged to apply with any host center of their choice, or consider an ISN Regional Training Center in their region for more locally relevant opportunities.

Application deadlines are twice a year, on May 1 and October 1 annually. Visit the program web page or email fellowship@theisn.org for more information on the Fellowship program and how to apply.
