As we put 2025 to bed and look forward to the new year, we know there is one thing on everybody’s minds:  Soon it will be March again, and time for NephMadness 2026!

This year the tournament will officially begin on Sunday, March 1, 2025. If you want to organize a #NephMadnessParty for your group, now is the time to get it on your group calendar! We can’t wait to see what creative ways of celebrating NephMadness you come up with this year.

Not sure how to get started? Here are some words of wisdom from the legendary NephMadness partiers at @VCU_Nephrology and @IINefroUMB.

If you need a background to use for Zoom party, feel free to use this:

And of course, a special shout-out to HGM Nefrologia (@hgm_nefrologia – @hgmnefrologia.bsky.social), who have won Best Party two years in a row, and last year threw a trilogy of parties we wish we had attended!
