Dialysis Fellowship, Division of Nephrology, University of Washington

The Division of Nephrology at the University of Washington offers a Dialysis Fellowship recognized by the International Society for Hemodialysis (ISHD) as a formal Advanced Nephrology (academic/research track) Dialysis Fellowship endorsed by the ABIM. This 12-month fellowship is offered to those who have completed a formal ACGME Nephrology Fellowship Training Program and are Nephrology-board eligible. The program is expected to raise the level of technical expertise in the field of dialysis along with generating innovative research advances in the field.

Early View for Hemodialysis International

Hemodialysis International is now part of the Wiley InterScience Early View service. Click here to view all the articles currently available. Articles are published online, in advance of their appearance in a print issue. These articles are fully peer reviewed, edited, and complete—they only lack page numbers and volume/issue details—and are considered fully published from the date they first appear online. This date is shown within the published article online. Because Early View articles are considered fully complete, please bear in mind that changes cannot be made to an article after the online publication date even if it is still yet to appear in print. The articles are available as full text HTML or PDF and can be cited as references by using their Digital Object Identifier (DOI) numbers. (For more information on DOIs, please see http://www.doi.org/faq.html.) On print publication, the article will be removed from the Early View area and will appear instead in the relevant online issue, complete with page numbers and volume/issue details. No other changes will be made. The implementation of Early View for the Hemodialysis International represents our commitment to get manuscripts available to view to the academic community as quickly as possible, reducing time to publication considerably without sacrificing quality or completeness.
