Second year fellows have limited primary inpatient service responsibilities. This year is dedicated to pursuing a scholarly project (for which there is approximately 75% protected time), while gaining more exposure to outpatient nephrology in chronic kidney disease, glomerular disease, and both inpatient and outpatient dialysis clinics. Opportunities are available critical care nephrology, home dialysis modalities, kidney stone disease and interventional nephrology. Additional clinical elective opportunities are available at Mount Sinai Beth Israel.

Fellows interested in the Clinician Educator track have the opportunity to lead small groups of first and second year medical students in Physiology and Kidney Pathophysiology courses, respectively, under the mentorship of Course Directors who are members of the Nephrology Faculty.
