In this episode, we explore sex and gender disparities in the epidemiology and outcomes of chronic kidney disease. Did you know that women are less likely to receive a CKD diagnosis, visit a nephrologist, or access guideline-recommended therapies—even in developed countries?To help us unpack these critical issues, we're joined by Professor Adeera Levin, Head of the Division of Nephrology at the University of British Columbia in CanadaTogether, we’ll discuss the biological, societal, and systemic barriers driving these disparities and, more importantly, how we can overcome them.

#37 A nurse’s view of nephrology, with Jeanette Finderup
We’ve probably all noticed that our nurses have a different perspective of our patients than the one we do ourselves and maybe we can say that often their perspective is closer to what the patient is feeling, so it’s definitely a fresh outlook. We will be talking about this with Jeanette Finderup in our episode on the nurse’s perspective, where you can expect to hear about what she thinks the role of the nurse is, what she thinks the role of the nurse is not, and how we could collaborate for the benefit of our patients to provide them with the most comprehensive healthcare that we can.
