Abstract
Nephrology is an advanced elective rotation for medical students. Though it is a subject relevant to almost all hospitalized patients, nephrology is often seen as one of the more difficult subjects. Written by medical students for medical students, this chapter covers exactly what a student should know and do to excel on the nephrology rotation in an easy-to-understand manner. Highlights include an overview of renal fundamentals, practical tips, and common cases. Specific attention is given to pointers that empower students to shine and demonstrate their mastery of nephrology.
