Dear friends and colleagues:
As many of you know already, this past March we completed a very successful Seminar with over 150 attendees and excellent presentations following the format from previous years. The Jose Strauss Visiting Professorship Award was given to Julie Ingelfinger M.D. This time we are happy to invite you to attend the 36th Pediatric Nephrology Seminar which will take place February 26-March 1, 2009 in beautiful Miami Beach at The Alexander All Suite Ocean Front Resort . The Miami Pediatric Nephrology Seminar is an international gathering of Pediatric and Internal Medicine Nephrologists from all over the United States and the world, sponsored by the University of Miami, Leonard Miller School of Medicine and  the Holtz Children’s Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital. This coming year we will have another exciting scientific program with a variety of topics including Sessions devoted to  Primary Glomerulopathies and Vasculitis, Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome, Hypertension and Chronic Kidney Disease, Research and Training Initiatives, Dialysis and Transplantation Challenges including Growth and Vitamin D deficiency. In addition, there will be 2 Workshops: 1) Congenital G-U Anomalies and VUR  and 2) Acute Kidney Injury and Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy, 2 Special Presentation Lectures and one Clinico-Pathologic Case Presentation Session. A large number of guest and local faculty will provide expertise and cordial exchanges including several panel discussions and Meet the Professor Luncheons.

In order to facilitate attendance by physicians in training, medical students and young faculty we will continue to provide a limited number of Partial Travel Grants (Applications must be received prior to December 31, 2008).
