The aims of the Society are to promote and support the study of the kidney and urinary tract in health and disease, and to ensure the highest professional standards for the practice of nephrology in Australia and New Zealand.
The Society provides information about research grants, scholarships, and vacant nephrological positions, and annually awards a number of travel grants and research fellowships, grants and scholarships.
The Society also promotes the exchange of ideas and education between South East Asian and Australian renal units and the South Pacific region.
