Onconephrology for Medical Professionals

Encouraging Professional Development in the Field of Onconephrology

In recent years, onconephrology has emerged as an evolving medical subspecialty that focuses on the treatment of kidney-related complications in cancer patients. This rapidly growing field has the goal of educating and supporting the clinical, educational and research needs that exist at the intersection of oncology and nephrology.
