Welcome to Hot Topics in Nephrology

Hot Topics in Nephrology is a collection of contemporary CE activities from experts at the University of Kentucky. It is designed to provide the generalist with useful and current information about common problems. Associated with each of these activities is an eLearning Community, an online forum through which participants who have completed the activity can communicate with the teaching faculty and with other learners about topics of mutual interest. Learners can ask questions, offer interesting cases and raise topics for discussion. Registration in the eLearning Community is available immediately after completing the activity, passing the post test, completing the evaluation, and claiming credit.

Hot Topics can be viewed at no charge without CME or CPE credit. For those seeking credit and entry to the eLearning Communities, the activities can be purchased as a course for a fee of $35 or taken as individual offerings for a fee of $15 each.
