[Jose Arriola-Montenegro @josearriolam]

An amazing two days at @MayoClinicNeph Mayo Clinic’s Selected Topics in Glomerular Diseases and Kidney Pathology 2026 in Rochester!

Great discussions on IgA nephropathy, lupus nephritis, C3GN/MPGN, vasculitis, podocytopathies, diabetic kidney disease, and glomerular disease in pregnancy, alongside genetic testing and kidney pathology.

The case discussions were a highlight—connecting biopsy findings with clinical decisions and bringing together perspectives from nephrology, renal pathology, rheumatology, and hematology.

Many thanks to Drs. Zand @LadanZand , Rolon @LeticiaRolonMD , and Fervenza @fervenzaf for organizing this excellent congress, and to all the faculty for sharing their knowledge and experience @SethiRenalPath @AliDuarteMD @GlassockJ @MPAlexanderMD @GarovicVesna
