Once again, the most prestigious award in #NephTwitter and #Nephsky, the NephJC Kidneys is gearing up. We need your help, first to nominate deserving endeavors, studies, and individuals, and second to vote. We missed out in 2023, we’ll attribute it long-COVID brain fog, and we reorganized the internship in 2025, but we realize recognition is one of the things that keeps the NephJC community strong. We’re back, baby, so think about who you’d like to nominate for the 2025 awards!
The #NephJCKidneys categories are:
Article of the Year. What was the most important manuscript of 2025? Need a hint, check out this year’s NephJC blogs!
Engaged Scientist of the Year goes to the scientist who participated in a NephJC discussion on their own manuscript.
The Nathan Hellman Social Media Project of the Year goes to a new project that is putting a dent into the #NephTwitter universe.
MVP goes to the person who contributed the most to NephJC in 2025.
Rookie of the Year. Who was the most impactful new contributor to NephJC chats?
Originally Yielded Visual Abstract of the Year (OY-VAY, previously the CJASN Visual Abstract of the Year) goes out to the best visual abstract on 2025, regardless if it was in CJASN, NDT, AJN, NephJC, NephMadness, KI Reports or other source.
Social Justice Award goes out to the person who has done the most to improve social justice in the last year.
Founders Award goes to the person, or group, that the NephJC Board feels is instrumental to keeping this whole endeavor rolling.
