Nathan Hellman Social Media Project of the Year
The Nate Hellman prize is intended to award a project that is making waves and is going to have a positive impact on #NephTwitter. Often, projects take some time to get going and reach their stride, so we do not want to limit this category to projects started in 2019, but we do want to limit it to projects that have broken through in the last year. So NephMadness is not eligible, but NephSIM is.

Amaka Eneanya for use of race in eGFR calculations
Fernando Fervenza and Laurence H Beck, Jr for MENTOR
Ben Humphreys for single cell transcriptomics papers
