  • Fellows receive $1,200 each year to use for conferences and/or educational material. All conference abstract fees are paid separately, by the Section of Nephrology.
  • Each trainee has 21 vacation days: 15 weekdays and 6 weekends; nine personal time-off days (conferences, interviews). For most types of leave, fellows are NOT required to find cross-coverage for clinical responsibilities while on leave.
