From Real-World Data to Real-World Impact
The 3rd Kidney Real-World Forum 2026 invites nephrologists, transplant physicians, researchers, fellows, allied healthcare professionals, and institutions worldwide to submit high-quality Real-World Data (RWD) abstracts.
The Forum brings together clinical evidence, real-world experience, innovation, and implementation to translate evidence into better kidney care.
Our Question: Does it work in the real world?
