Every year since 2012, ASN has done the FIT bowl to inspire
fellows to compete and learn nephrology in a fun and competitive way. Usually,
there are 2 teams of various fellows from different fellowship programs mixed
competing for the winning spot. First round is usually Case
Based debates( Mystery case) run by Hitesh H Shah and myself and then a fun
filled Jeopardy round with James Simon and team.
This year, there is going to be some changes. It will move
to a 2 days process to allow for more game time. The competition will start on
Thursday, October 25, 2018 from 10:30am-12:30pm in the Scientific Exposition
floor, Hall A of the San Diego Convention Center.
The overall competition schedule
is as follows:
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2018
